Mr. Chair, the system we have in place is an ecosystem. The statement was made earlier that there is no one single point on which we rely for the safety and security of Canada. It starts with the initial touchpoint that we as IRCC have with an applicant. We have the “before Canada” piece. We've talked about CBSA and their ability to then use any additional information before an individual boards an aircraft, and the point of entry, if there's additional information that has been received where CBSA would be able to identify those threats. Then we have the domestic network as well.
On August 28th, 2024. See this statement in context.
