Mr. Speaker, let me just read part of a letter from the Anglican Church of Canada.
Archbishop Hutchison, who attended that meeting, said:
We were very appreciative of your offer of an interim solution to address the issue of failed convention refugee claimants who are currently residing in churches in Canada. It is our belief that this offer was extended in good faith and it was received that way.
It was gratifying to know that you see us as important partners in addressing refugee issues, and we look forward to continuing our dialogue together in the future as you move forward on refugee reform.
