Senate passes new immigration bill after much debate and controversy
Canadian Press
Thursday, November 01, 2001
OTTAWA (CP) - The Senate passed the government\'s new immigration act late Wednesday after months of debate and controversy over the sweeping changes it introduces.
Bill C-11 became a focus of attention following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, when opposition parties called for additional amendments to tighten Canada\'s immigration system. Citizenship and Immigration Minister Elinor Caplan has said she wanted the bill passed before she entertains any further changes in light of the terrorist attacks.
The new Immigration Act brings several changes, among them immediate security checks of refugee claimants and a streamlined removal process. It also imposes hefty new penalties for people smugglers.
