If I could just build on my colleague's comments, I think the problem with the United Nations' definition of a refugee has been a stumbling block. I think we have to look beyond that and get away from definitions and look at the fact that Canada has played, for the last number of decades, a strong role acting in a humanitarian way, and we have to disregard the definition and move quickly. The most accessible refugees right now are in Turkey, and the situation in Turkey is unstable. If we have to wait a year to get these folks out, I'm not sure we're going to have access to them.
