Mr. Speaker, this summer the results of a very revealing immigration poll were released. Sixty per cent of Canadians believe immigration levels should be lower. Sixty-nine per cent said sponsorship should be limited to immediate dependent family. Ninety-six per cent did not want people admitted with terrorist or anti-democratic backgrounds.
Will the minister of immigration admit that his policies of high numbers and extended family reunification and his recently released guidelines that fast track those with violent and anti-democratic backgrounds fly in the face of what an overwhelming majority of Canadians want?
