Correct. The bill would allow the senior immigration officer to turn that person around at the border without an inquiry. It is common sense. If we accept that someone cannot return unless they have permission after deportation and they come to the border without permission, why should we have an inquiry? Clearly it has already been determined. This would make it more efficient.
If an immigration appeal division disagrees and moves it from a deportation to a departure, why should a minister or the crown not say they respect the decision or it is right to make that decision but because of the seriousness of the crime perpetrated they would like to appeal the removal notice from a departure to a deportation? Deportation gives Canada the right to protect itself from such individuals.
It is not with the view of trying to be politically involved or intervening. It would simply be a right of any country to protect itself from those it deems to be a danger to the public and a notice may be switched from deportation to departure based on some consideration that is outweighed by the nature of the offence. That is the reason it is balanced, fair and measured.
