Knee Jerk Reaction: Don Davies

False Representation Dept: NDP immigration critic Don Davies said government resources would be better spent dealing with the major problems the immigration system already faces, instead of rolling out a program that is "form over substance.", according to Vancouver Sun. The tip line is for members of the public to report any instances of "false representation, fraud or knowingly concealing material circumstances in the citizenship process," according to a news release and the Opposition tore into a new government tip line, unveiled Thursday, designed to ferret out individuals attempting to defraud the immigration system. "It's not a well-thought-out idea and it's a knee-jerk reaction to make the Conservatives look like they're tough on a problem they haven't demonstrated exists," Davies said.
