Yes, but you haven’t explained the logic behind it.
From what I understand of Bill C‑12, a person’s asylum claim will not be accepted even if they show they have remained within Canada for 14 days. I have to say that this provision is somewhat schizophrenic, when you think about it: In order to be able to properly file an asylum claim, you first have to have broken the law. That really is quite something.
Bill C‑12 says that this type of asylum claim will no longer be accepted. On the other hand, will an individual be able to apply for a pre-removal risk assessment if they’ve crossed the border irregularly, hidden for 14 days and provided proof of this?
