Yes.
I will highlight the parts of the motion where I am amending. The language is as follows:
That, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the committee undertake a study on the implications for Canada
I'm adding “and for undocumented people and people with temporary status in the United States”. That's the change.
The original motion goes on to say:
of the measures announced by Donald Trump during the U.S. presidential campaign regarding the deportation of
Here I add in new language, “undocumented”. Then it's back to the original language:
persons
Then I'm adding new language, “and their family members, including children, who are U.S. citizens”. Then it goes on with the original language:
who are in the United States
My amendment would be to strike the word “illegally”. Then I add further new language, “examine the proposal by U.S. president-elect Donald Trump to carry out 'the largest deportation program in American history' of millions of undocumented residents of the U.S., including his stated intentions to declare a national emergency and deploy the U.S. military to carry out mass deportations to determine if the U.S. still qualifies as a safe country for refugees.”
Then, in the next clause, add a new word, “request”. Then it's the original language:
the Canadian federal government
Add new language, “to table their”. Then it's the original language:
plan to ensure border security and compliance with federal immigration statutes and policies;
Add new language “and to examine its implication in compliance with Canada's obligations under the charter and international law, including the 1951 Refugees Convention, to which Canada is a signatory for 55 years, and that the study take into account this committee's report on asylum seekers at Canada's border that recommended the Safe Third Country Agreement exemptions for gender-based claims and claims from moratorium countries in recognition of the risk of harms these claimants face in the U.S. prior to the current deportation issues.”
Those would be my amendments.
