With respect to the humanitarian and compassionate grounds applications outside of Canada--not within Canada, because I understand within Canada one or more applications can be made under humanitarian and compassionate grounds, and that still would apply, given Bill C-50.... I know there has been some mention that if a person failed outside of Canada under a skilled worker class--let's say pursuant to an instruction under Bill C-50.... If Bill C-50 wasn't there, would you agree they could apply under humanitarian and compassionate grounds pre-Bill C-50?
