It would be hard to comment on a proposal made by the CCR, but one of the main advantages of the current program, the current special measures, is that people will not be removed if they have an application in process or if they submit an application within a certain period of time. That is really one of the keys here—making sure that people have a chance to submit an application and have it processed without fear of being removed from Canada during that time.
