How did Canada manage to resettle 25,000 Syrian refugees over a 4-month period?

The death of a five year old on Greek shores is yet another example of the disgusting and inhumane failure of European migration and asylum policy.

It is INFURIATING that European politicians continue to utterly ignore the plight of refugees in Greece and European media has enabled their negligence with its silence.

“A 1985 Supreme Court ruling known as the Singh decision ruled that asylum seekers have the right to full oral hearings of their refugee claims.

The decision is considered one of the most significant in Canadian refugee law.”

Trudeau govt wants to make asylum seekers who have unsuccessfully claimed asylum elsewhere automatically ineligible for #refugee protection in #Canada.

This would seriously undermine the legal right to have refugee claims heard by an independent tribunal

Yesterday, we welcomed the largest group of Rohingya refugees resettling in Canada to Waterloo Region. 27 people in 9 families, sponsored by ICNA Relief Canada arrived at Pearson Airport this morning to a very warm welcome. Their story demonstrates Canadian values of community.
