I think the fact that the Hong Kong authorities have been seizing the travel documents of Hong Kong persons who have been subject to police incarceration indicates that they don't want them to be able to leave Hong Kong. It's a very serious issue. I would hope that our government could make some provision for persons who do not have documentation because they are being held by the Hong Kong authorities, to be able to make a passage to Canada.
