Mr. Speaker, this whole Schelew affair is just the tip of the iceberg. Mr. Schelew may be gone but the fundamental problems with the IRB remain.
The board is far too vulnerable to special interests in the immigration industry. It remains unaccountable to the Canadian public and its credibility has been shaken. Friends and foes of Mr. Schelew have all been calling for a public inquiry to clear the air surrounding the IRB.
When will the minister put public interest ahead of political damage control and call an immediate, thorough and public inquiry into the workings of the IRB?
