Clearly, something like that is contemplated by the way the regulations are worded. The problem that exists here, and Ms. Houle talked about it, is that you've got a provision that would take away rights that is not controlled by legislation, but it's a cabinet process. That's the weakness.
I think if there were safeguards, if you had the right kinds of restrictions on how a country was listed or how these determinations were made, yes, it could, because you could have homosexual populations at risk in a country that's otherwise safe--those kinds of things.
It's something that has to be very carefully thought out. I don't think it should be left to regulation, frankly. I think the kinds of restrictions should be something your committee should be looking at. If you're going to have a safe country list, what kinds of restrictions can we put so that no political or arbitrary decisions are made in the case?
