Thank you very much, Madam Chair, and thank you to the witnesses for their presentations.
I'm first going to go to Mr. Falconer and Mr. Chan. On the issue around Hong Kongers who are trying to get to safety, the government actually made an announcement last week. However, in that announcement there are no provisions or measures, if you will, for people who are in Hong Kong right now to seek refuge in Canada. There's no refugee stream that was announced by the minister.
Would you say that it is absolutely essential, given the dire situation of Hong Kong, that the government bring in a special measure for the people of Hong Kong through the refugee stream?
