Mr. Speaker, the international community has consistently praised Canada for its compassionate, responsible, and generous refugee program. We will take no lessons from the previous government on issues around refugees and immigrants.
In fact, by lifting the Mexican visa requirement, we have gone a long way to rebuild and strengthen our bilateral relationship with Mexico that was damaged considerably by the previous government.
We addressed those associated with the Mexican visa lift. We worked closely with Mexican officials. Tourism has gone up and other economic benefits have gone up. We will continue to work to make sure the visa lift is a success.
