Madam Speaker, I have two petitions to present.
The first calls on the government to recognize the last group of Vietnamese boat people as refugees under the country of asylum class and allow the resettlement of some 500 individuals on humanitarian and compassionate grounds during the 2005-06 fiscal year. These signatories are from across Canada.
The second petition asks Parliament to increase the quotas for parental sponsorship admissions and reduce time for sponsorship applications.
