I have many cases like that. We'll talk about that later, I guess.

I note that the final decision for visas rests with the visa officers abroad. If we have visas granted by the visa officers for people who are inadmissible and visas not being granted for people like the many examples I talked about right now, then what are we doing about the accountability of our visa officers abroad?

We do know that some of them are contracted and are not Canadians.
