Actually, I will address that point as well with regard to the alternatives to detention. In Quebec we have a service called PRAIDA, the one that we are representing today here. That is quite a good alternative to detention. It's a public service. We have the mandate to be designated representatives. We go before the IRB. In detention revision cases we do propose alternatives. Where the person is released, PRAIDA takes over the person. We do shelter people, especially those from vulnerable groups and unaccompanied minors. We do make sure that they present themselves for any conditions where they have to sign. We do make sure that the IRB and the CIC, as well as the SFC have their addresses.
As soon as we see any strange movement by the asylum seeker, we do call the border agency and Immigration Canada and let them know what's going on. At the same time, Immigration Canada as well as the border agency and the IRB do call our services sometimes and say, “Would you please assist this person, and we're going to confine the person if you don't propose an alternative”.
Thank you.
