Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship
A wide-ranging bill to strengthen Canada's immigration system and borders. Among many provisions, it eliminates the 'designated countries of origin' regime, increases maximum penalties under the Proceeds of Crime and Terrorist Financing Act, and amends the Sex Offender Information Registration Act. In debate, Conservatives focused on temporary health coverage for asylum claimants, which they characterized as 'luxury, taxpayer-funded' care. Liberals countered that asylum claims are down 59% due to their measures, and that criminals should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law regardless of immigration status.
