I want to switch gears a bit and talk about human trafficking.
We've had several people bring this issue up, and the issue of mail-order brides. We had Arlene Ruiz from Saskatoon here at the last meeting. She spoke about this issue with my colleague. I had a case in my constituency of a Filipino woman who was dumped by her husband, basically because she had terminal breast cancer, and then she was deported.
I asked the IRCC officials why our human trafficking laws are not being exercised properly, and I didn't really get an answer. I wonder if you've ever seen anything like that. Are there safeguards in place from Immigration Canada and CBSA to protect vulnerable women ?
