Perpetrators Members: Ghost Consultants and Oversight Body

perpetrators members: MPs are now considering recommendations ranging from overhauling or even scrapping the independent oversight body, to imposing heavier penalties for perpetrators, according to CBC. Members heard harrowing stories from duped clients who testified behind closed doors. The Commons immigration committee has just wrapped up weeks of hearings on unregistered representatives called ghost consultants. Some were ripped off for thousands of dollars, or brought over with the promise of work only to be dumped at the side of the road or left in a warehouse. Liberal MP and committee chair Borys Wrzesnewskyj said testimony about crooked and ghost consultants made it clear the status quo can't continue. In all, they heard from 50 witnesses and read 24 written submissions. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
