Mr. Speaker, the way to ensure fairness is precisely to go before the courts. There are complex legal issues involved. It will be up to the courts to decide what constitutes fair treatment. It is because of the complexity of the case that we decided to go that route.
Had we reached an agreement based on humanitarian grounds, we might have been forced to reopen 2,000 other cases affecting an additional 70,000 people. It is precisely to make sure we respect the law that we decided to go before the courts, instead of reaching any kind of agreement.
