Thank you, Madam Chair.
Mr. Bussières, you just brought up the reasons for the refusals. They are sometimes difficult to understand.
I am going to try to cut to the chase, if I can put it like that. At a committee meeting last week, one witness—not to mention any names but it was Mr. Normand—came right out and told us that applications were refused because a course of study in French outside Quebec was not legitimate.
When I heard that, I fell off my chair. Maybe you did too.
Have you ever had to deal with cases like that?
