The bolded line is ugly and unneeded. Legal immigrants being considered second class citizens (which is the only way to take that comment btw) is something we shouldn't be seeing in this country, it's extremely anti Canadian and I guarantee you there's lots of immigrants on CP that cringed reading that.

But agreed with the absurdity of Vincent Li having full access to all necessary treatment while the rest affected are left to fend for themselves. It's not absurd that Li gets the treatment, but that the rest don't. That simply shouldn't happen.
