OBS

En 1980, le ministre de l'Emploi et de l'Immigration, Lloyd Axworthy, a établi un groupe de travail dont l'objectif était d'améliorer et de simplifier le système de détermination du statut de réfugié. Le groupe de travail a formulé trois recommandations, lesquelles ont toutes éventuellement été mises en œuvre. Premièrement, un Comité consultatif sur le statut de réfugié (CCSR) a été constitué comme organisation autonome afin de distinguer son travail de celui que faisaient les Ministères des Affaires étrangères et de l'Emploi et de l'Immigration.
