I think UNHCR has been quite clear that we believe that all refugees should have access to an appeal on the merits, both as to law and fact. That basically stems from Canada's convention obligations, which include reference to the non-discrimination clauses in the 1951 convention relating to the status of refugees, both article 3 and article 8, but particularly article 3. Very briefly, since it's a brief article, I'll read it to you: “The Contracting States shall apply the provisions of this Convention to refugees without discrimination as to race, religion or country of origin”.
