Debate on refugee reform bill begins

I have a new piece up on the Xtra.ca national page today, which continues my coverage of the attempts to reform the refugee system in this country. It was one of the few times that I've actually sat through debates as they happen, partly from CPAC and partly in the House (where I was the only reporter in the gallery for it). I'll continue following this as it develops, which should be a great deal more coverage in the coming weeks.

There were more questions I had for NDP MP Bill Siksay that never made it into the final article, so I posted that Q&A on my Hill Queeries blog here.
