Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration.
A couple of weeks ago the minister for immigration did some tough talking. He said he wanted to close loopholes and prevent people who should not be in Canada from coming in through the back door.
However, last week he changed his tune. Now he says the system is too strict and that we need to accept more people whose refugee claims were rejected.
How can this minister justify talking tough and at the same time create an all new level of bureaucracy to pave the way for failed asylum seekers to stay in Canada?
