Why fair screening matters 为什么公平审查如此重要 Pourquoi des vérifications équitables sont importantes

Security without transparency is not just, it's harmful — the current security screening system is failing on transparency, fairness, efficiency, and supervision.

Security without transparency is not just — it's harmful. The current system fails on transparency, fairness, efficiency, and oversight, driving away skilled talent and wasting public resources. 缺乏透明度的安全审查并不公正——而是有害的。当前系统在透明度、公平性、效率与监督上均存在缺失，正在赶走优秀人才、浪费公共资源。 La sécurité sans transparence n'est pas juste — elle est nuisible. Le système actuel échoue en matière de transparence, d'équité, d'efficacité et de surveillance.

Waiting without a timeline should not become a life sentence — some applicants have spent 30, 40, 50, even 60+ months in security screening.

Waiting without a timeline should not become a life sentence. Some applicants have been in security screening for 30, 40, 50, even 60+ months. 没有时间线的等待，不应该变成无期徒刑。有些申请人已经在安全审查中等待了30、40、50甚至60多个月。 Attendre sans échéancier ne devrait pas devenir une peine à perpétuité. Certains demandeurs attendent depuis 30, 40, 50, voire plus de 60 mois.

Families waiting, lives on hold — transparency now. We ask for greater transparency, meaningful status updates, reasonable timelines, and accountability.

Families waiting. Lives on hold. Transparency now! We are healthcare workers, tradespeople, educators, students, and more — asking for transparency, meaningful updates, reasonable timelines, and accountability. 家庭在等待，生活被搁置。现在就要透明！我们是医护人员、技工、教育工作者、学生等——我们要求透明度、有意义的进展通报、合理时限与问责。 Des familles attendent. Des vies en suspens. De la transparence maintenant! Nous demandons transparence, mises à jour significatives, délais raisonnables et reddition de comptes.
