“The minister says our asylum system works well, but it does not. Quebec is still taking in far more than its fair share of asylum seekers.”
“Mr. Chair, the number of asylum seekers is one thing. The distribution of asylum seekers across Canada is another. How can the minister say today that this is a success when the situation has not changed, and Quebec continues to take in a disproportionate share of asylum seekers relative to its demographic weight within the Canadian federation?”
