From the Canadian Council for Refugees:

Bill C-4, the Preventing Human Smugglers from Abusing Canada's Immigration System Act, is currently before Parliament. Despite its title, Bill C-4 mostly targets refugees, not smugglers.

Under Bill C-4, refugees, including refugee children, will be mandatorily detained for a year, without possibility of independent review, and denied family reunification and the right to travel abroad for over 5 years.
