Thank you.
These provisions are going to be appealed.
Minister, you haven't directed your officials to begin preparing to defend these appeals, so it's highly likely that many people will perceive the measures in this bill as a way to just punt. The government is punting this to the courts.
Have you consulted with your provincial colleagues and come up with a cost estimate of the legal costs it will cost provincial governments in terms of bogus asylum claims challenging the provisions in this bill?
