Mr. Speaker, last Tuesday a single mother facing deportation escaped custody at Vancouver airport. Friends opposed to her deportation swarmed immigration officers and she managed to get into a car and escape.
In the post-September 11 environment, the government promised to improve airport security but it has largely only improved its bottom line by raising taxes.
Just what kind of airport security is it that allows an unarmed handcuffed deportee to outfox security officials?
