Thank you for your question. There are three comments that I will make.
First, as I said in my previous answer, yes, I agree that speeding up the process is important. My clients are very frustrated and very sad when it takes so long to have a hearing, and they're thinking about their family overseas, whom they want to bring here. They know they can't start the process until they're accepted as a refugee under the current system. They're often desperate to get a hearing quickly, and that's where I think the Balanced Refugee Reform Act got it right.
You said that BillC-31 is compassionate because it speeds up the process. I think that the Balanced Refugee Reform Act was compassionate. I don't think one year in jail is compassionate to people who aren't even being charged with a crime. The government just doesn't like how they arrived.
