Critical Analysis — What This Bill Actually Does
Criminalized trafficking in human organs and amended both the Criminal Code and Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. While targeting a genuine human rights issue, it created new inadmissibility grounds for immigration that rely on intelligence assessments rather than criminal convictions, expanding the grounds on which someone can be denied entry without a trial.
