Thank you.
We went to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act to clarify that section 117 applies to human smuggling and trafficking. Basically, the point I'm making is that Bill C-14, in its present form, already imports certain provisions of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act for the purpose of making such offences reverse onus offences. What Mr. Lawton is proposing with his amendment is that we expand that further by making some other very serious offences under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act also reverse onus offences, including terrorism, organized crime, treason and stuff like that.
I think that this makes a lot of sense. We're already doing that to start with; let's do just a little better.
