Mr. Speaker, I think I can safely say on behalf of all political leaders in the House of Commons that we appreciate the Prime Minister agreeing to the need for a non-partisan visit to ground zero. Certainly our lives are forever changed by that. Our resolve has even deepened in terms of preventing such atrocities as we witnessed.
The United Nations Security Council has passed a resolution calling on all nations to toughen their refugee laws. Last week we learned that the government had lost track of literally thousands of failed refugee claimants who had been ordered deported.
It is now day 20. What real and specific steps has the government taken to show Canadians that their refugee system will no longer be open to terrorists and to illegal applicants?
