Mr. Speaker, that is an answer I would celebrate on April 1.
According to the most recent departmental performance report, under the Conservatives, the backlog of refugee claims has more than doubled. The number of finalized claims has decreased by 50%. The average processing time has increased to 14 months, and the average cost per claim has increased by almost $2,000 to nearly $5,000.
Why has the Conservative government failed to provide a timely and efficient refugee determination system to people who desperately need one?
