“Our laws already allow us to act. When a non-citizen in Canada commits a crime, border officers investigate them, and they can be removed from the country.”
“Mr. Chair, I recognize the member opposite had a private member’s bill that was voted down. I appreciate her advocacy. We have laws. There is nothing in IRPA that allows that. If we find a person in Canada who has committed a crime and is a non-Canadian, the Canada Border Services Agency investigates, all of them, and that person could become inadmissible and removed from Canada.”
