Pardon me, Minister, but I was talking about irregular entries. The deputy minister told us there would be 50,000 of them, but I find that projection odd. Since we know there were 31,000 from January to October, that means there would be 20,000 in two months.
You should simply tell the people in your department to pay attention when they calculate their projections. That's what they're paid for, and they should make accurate projections.
Talking about the people from your department, as we all saw, none of the officials present in the previous panel could tell me how the asylum claims process worked before the safe third country agreement was implemented in 2004.
As minister, do you consider it normal that your team of officials didn't know how the process for a person arriving from the United States and claiming asylum in Canada worked before the third safe country agreement was introduced?
