If I may react to your various comments, first of all, in terms of the minister, I do not mean my comments to be a personal attack on the minister. There are many things he has done and said that I admire and endorse completely. It's just that I don't agree with everything he does.
Similarly, there are many good provisions in Bill C-31—for instance, the fact of the appeal, which has been sitting around as unproclaimed provisions in the legislation for many years now. I'm glad to see we're finally doing it. But with the specifics of this, the designated foreign nationals, that's the only thing I'm focusing on because I find that particularly problematic.
The trouble in terms of the detention is that it's not flexible. We could find people safe. We could know who they are. We could know they're not a flight risk, but they still have to be in detention.
Somebody suggested there's a cost to these periodic detention reviews. But it's far more costly to keep people in detention when they don't need to be there, simply as a disincentive to prevent the next person from coming.
