Mr. Speaker, I listened carefully to my colleague's speech.
He said that it was not their fault and that the Conservative government created the problem. I would like my colleague to tell me why his government did not fix the situation before now if it was so serious.
There were parliamentary reports dating as far back as 2007 on lost Canadians. The issue got media attention. There was even a legal challenge filed in 2021. It took a decision by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice for the government to act.
I would like my colleague to explain why no one at the immigration department noticed that this was not working.
