I disagree with your contention, of course. That's because I think you're mistaking the Prime Minister's statement of a fact that we in Canada offer protection to people who are fleeing war, persecution and terrorism, and that we have a commitment to our international obligations to provide refuge to those who are seeking refuge....
That is not the same thing as saying we agree or concur with people crossing our borders irregularly. The Prime Minister and all the ministers, as well as members of Parliament on our side, have said it very clearly. We do not condone people crossing our borders irregularly. We've taken action to address that. I can point to the many things we have done, including extra funding to make sure that refugee claimants are processed faster so that those who have legitimate claims can stay in the country, and those who do not can be removed faster.
