Mr. Speaker, I still do not understand why the application was rejected. I wonder how the minister can justify his officials' decision not to grant a visitor's visa to this filmmaker, considering that, last week, he himself deemed appropriate to deliver a minister's permit to Randall Terry, the leader of Human Life International, who just served a five-month jail sentence in the United States, which clearly makes him ineligible to enter Canada. Is there a double standard?
In the House of Commons on April 25th, 1995. See this statement in context.
