Mr. Speaker, I do not think the Canadian people are going to be satisfied with that kind of an answer.
The minister has been aware for some time that HIV testing is not done. Not only that, but if an applicant admits being positive to HIV he or she still can be admitted to Canada. This is outrageous. Surely the minister cannot deny that HIV infected immigrants are a threat to our already overburdened health care system.
Does the minister have statistics on how many AIDS infected immigrants or refugees have been admitted to Canada to date?
