I left in the term “attorney” knowing that the Chair would raise the point, and in connection with this answer, that's why I put it in.
Coincidentally, out of the last, say, five marine arrivals, at least three arrived within three weeks of a new immigration minister picking up the baton and assuming those responsibilities. You can't get a baseball across the Pacific Ocean without the Americans knowing. To just spitball here, what if an analyst in Washington came up with the idea that we allow the Canadian taxpayer to pay for our northern border by allowing a marine arrival, knowing full well the political consequences for an inexperienced immigration minister. Regarding the chances of more marine arrivals, just watch when you appoint people to the position of minister.
Yes, I am opposed to mandatory detention for a mass arrival, but I suspect those are going to be few and far between. I have no other answer.
