Mr. Speaker, the Liberals have shown a glaring inconsistency on refugees.
Last week the opposition raised concerns that desperate refugees across the globe are being elbowed aside by asylum shoppers from the U.S. The minister accused us of “wanting to shut the border” and made an irresponsible slur. Today we learned the government is suddenly prepared to do precisely what we suggested and turn back asylum shoppers.
Can the immigration minister explain why an idea he trashed last week is now government policy?
