“This (law) is the most significant rollback of refugee rights in Canada in over a decade,” said Adam Sadinsky of the Canadian Association of Refugee Lawyers. “It’s disappointing that Canada has joined other countries in a race to the bottom in terms of protection of rights for migrants and vulnerable people.”

    So fuck the refugees but TFWs are fine? What the fuck, Carney? I don’t care about how much the demand for refugee status has increase, those numbers can be directly subtracted from the amount of TFWs we bring in. They can complain about fraud all they like but IMO it’s a ridiculous argument to make while ever corporations are allowed to scam our country with temporary foreign workers. I’d much rather high refugee numbers and immigration numbers than high temporary worker numbers.
