Parliament Video: Jenny in Question Period: Don't deport a key witness in a human trafficking case!

On April 4, Jenny stood in Question Period to ask:

Jenny Kwan Vancouver East, BC

"Mr. Speaker, A&L Hammer is being investigated by the IRCC for human trafficking. The victim, Roger Demoto, is a key witness in this case. He was scheduled to give evidence to the IRCC yesterday, but instead, the CBSA detained him and wants to deport him. It is absurd that the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing.

We must do everything we can to combat human trafficking. Urgent action is required. Will the Minister of Immigration work with public safety to stay the deportation to avert this travesty of justice?"
