Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship

Question period focused on the immigration minister and reports that a person with ties to Iran’s IRGC may have entered Canada despite being inadmissible. Conservative members said the minister mishandled the case, that the government cannot track whether people leave when permits expire, and called on the Prime Minister to remove her. Government ministers replied that IRGC members and senior Iranian officials are barred from entering Canada, that no IRGC member was admitted, that anyone with such ties in Canada faces removal, and pointed to lower asylum and temporary resident numbers, increased removals, and an immigration and border security bill as evidence the system is being strengthened.Written by AI from the debate.
