Thank you for that.
I certainly think it's absolutely bizarre that a member of Parliament's office is the front-line immigration staff. When you represent a region like mine, which is bigger than the United Kingdom, there is nowhere else to go. My staff do excellent work, but it does seem to be a very bizarre use of our resources.
I want to talk about cases of marriages of convenience. We deal with all manner of marriages coming through. We deal with all kinds of delays and problems, but we have dealt with many cases that seem to come from certain red flag countries. It seems to me that the flags go up immediately with Immigration that some of these look like.... The rise of Internet wives is an issue that I see.
Mr. Kurland, how do we balance that, the right of the citizen to go down to a hot climate, fall in love on the weekend, come home, and say they want their wife, without any expectation that she is actually going to stay for more than a week?
