Citizenship and Immigration committee  I think that question should be left to the people we've elected and our judiciary. If there any amendments—and I've heard from member Shory that he's open to some—I will leave it at that, because I'm not an expert on that.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  What you have read is what we are standing for. We are speaking out. We're not a large group like the Ahmadiyya, but the fact is that our message is resonating. We get a lot of opposition. I would like to take this opportunity to ask both sides to look at what we are doing at th

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Your question has several answers, if I may say so. First of all, I don't see it as two-tier, as Asif has said.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  One answer? Okay. Then you should have stopped her, with all due respect, because I'm not going to be able to answer the whole question.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  It is a definite problem, and anyone who says this only might be a problem is living in a dream world. It is a definite problem. I was travelling to Dubai last year and I saw an imam from the Mississauga area bringing 18 or 19 young people for a retreat. I know very well what tha

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Absolutely, and I think there have been weaknesses in our system.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  This is definitely a very clear message, and we hope this will resonate and that people will understand that there is a responsibility with that. We cannot be politically correct in everything and it's not about political correctness, because at the end of the day, by being poli
