Okay.
I would like to draw your attention to an immigration holding centre in Laval, Quebec, that is no more than a prison where men, women and children are detained. For years, we have been hearing about human rights violations when children are detained in conditions that violate all international human rights standards.
Today, the passing of Bill C-31 would legalize the detention of children for a maximum period of one year without giving them access to health care, legal assistance or the protection of rights related to their status.
Can you tell the committee about the health status and well-being of women and children detained in federal immigration holding centres?
This question is for everyone. Can someone give us more information on the detention of children with their parents in institutions that lack services related to children's health and rights, as I just noted?
These seem to be difficult questions, don't they, Madam Chair?
