I move that Bill C-12 be amended by adding after line 23 on page 18, the following new clause:
39.1 Subsection 68(4) of the Act is replaced by the following:
(4) If the Immigration Appeal Division has stayed a removal order against a permanent resident or a foreign national who was found inadmissible on grounds of serious criminality or transborder criminality, and they are convicted of another offence referred to in subsection 36(1), the stay is cancelled by operation of law and the appeal is terminated.
Again, this is related to the concept of strengthening provisions around serious criminality and non-citizen criminals.
Colleagues, I encourage you to support this amendment and provide some strengthening of and confidence in Canada's immigration system.
Thank you.
