A question came up earlier from the other side, I believe, about when people, whether they're queue jumpers or not, use illegal means of coming into the country. We know that human smuggling is a very lucrative business. The idea of treating everybody who comes into the country by illegal means in a different fashion, if you will, raises some very serious concerns. For example, I heard the member from Papineau mention the Sun Sea and Ocean Lady. In those two particular cases, a total of 41 people were denied admission to the country; 23 were found to be security risks; 18 were found to have perpetrated war crimes in their country of origin. I don't believe Canadians want 41 people living in their neighbourhoods, being around their children, who are in effect criminals in the country from which they came.
There needs to be due process, a time to be able to evaluate their eligibility to come to the country, and certainly the safety of Canadians is paramount.
I do have one more question for you, Mr. Wlodyka. Do you think it makes sense that 25% of refugee claims in Canada come from the European Union, more than Africa and Asia? What does that say about our system when they have a choice to go to 26 other countries—there are 27 in the EU—yet they come to Canada?
