Madam Speaker, I would like to review some facts with the hon. member regarding this matter.
The truth is that temporary resident permits are issued in a transparent manner that requires the Government of Canada to provide the House with just what we were mentioning, full disclosure every year.
Today's system is eminently preferable to the discretionary entry system that we had before the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act which did not require any such disclosure.
The Government of Canada is firmly committed to providing Canadians with all transparency that such an important program demands. That is what we have done.
The hon. member for York West has also asked the Ethics Commissioner to report to the House on whether she adhered to the principles of fairness, transparency and compassion which are so clearly the cornerstones of this program.
The Ethics Commissioner is now doing his job and I suggest that the hon. member should let him do it.
