Thank you for this opportunity to address some of the concerns of the Refugee Lawyers Association of Ontario.
We are a voluntary association of about 200 refugee lawyers who practise solely or primarily in the area of refugee law. As refugee lawyers, we have a number of very serious concerns about this bill. We have laid these out in a written brief. It's about 35 pages, and I don't know whether it's been circulated yet. We provided it to Mr. Chaplin last week.
