Yes, we're very concerned about the safe countries designation and the list, and we're more than willing to share our concerns with anybody who will listen to us. I don't think it's practical to develop this list at all, because even within Canada there is discrimination against members of the LGBT community. It's extremely problematic to develop what would be called a “safe list”. It's just not doable in terms of dealing with LGBT claimants.
I think that is one of our primary concerns, and we've communicated that to many members on all sides of the House. We hope the committee will take a serious look and stand on this particular aspect of the bill.
