EVIDENCE
Thursday, November 25, 2004
[Recorded by Electronic Apparatus]

¿ (0920)
[English]
The Chair (Hon. Andrew Telegdi (Kitchener—Waterloo, Lib.)): The Citizenship and Immigration Committee will come to order.
Monsieur Roger Clavet, did you have a motion?
[Translation]
Mr. Roger Clavet (Louis-Hébert, BQ): Yes. I would suggest that the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration pass a motion to congratulate Benjamin Dolan on the quality of his report, the relevance of the summary and content, and the accuracy of the different views presented.
[English]
The Chair: Thank you very much.
Do we get a speech from Ben?
Mr. Benjamin Dolin (Committee Researcher): I'd rather not, really.
The Chair: Thank you
I think it's very relevant, and I thank you very much for that.
Any comments? Mr. Siksay.
Mr. Bill Siksay (Burnaby—Douglas, NDP): Mr. Chair, I just want to add my appreciation to Ben as well. In working on the review, I think the concerns we raised were all taken into consideration. I think it's a very helpful document and really appreciate the work that's been done on it. Thank you very much.
The Chair: Good.
Anybody else?
Hon. Hedy Fry (Vancouver Centre, Lib.): I add my congratulations. Use it on your resumé.
The Chair: Let me just say he had to bring together stuff that happened under Bill C-63, Bill C-16, and Bill C-18. Certainly, we're very fortunate. It's almost like a very strong foundation on which we as a committee get to proceed.
So thank you very much for that, Ben. Congratulations, and don't blush.
Mr. Benjamin Dolin: It's too late.
The Chair: They're accolades that are very well deserved.
I guess that ends our public meeting.
An hon. member: [Inaudible—Editor]
The Chair: Oh, that's right.
Let me call the vote from the committee.
Mr. David Tilson (Dufferin—Caledon, CPC): What's the motion?
The Chair: We're congratulating our senior analyst on the excellent work he has done on the report.
All those in favour of the motion, please so signify.
(Motion agreed to)
The Chair: It is unanimous.
Congratulations.
Mr. Benjamin Dolin: Thank you very much.
The Chair: Our public meeting now comes to a close. We're going to go into private session and go through the report.
