great, what's what you said zero tolerant to refugees? any references?
When our government was first elected in 2006, we inherited a broken immigration and refugee system that didn't meet Canada's economic needs.
Bill C-31, Protecting Canada's Immigration System Act, outlines our Government's vision for an improved immigration and refugee system with a steadfast commitment to humanitarian obligations, family reunification and achieving our countries economic goals.
Canada's immigration system has a reputation of being the most fair and generous in the world.
However, we have zero tolerance for those who abuse our generosity, make bogus refugee claims, and take unfair advantage of our country.
For example, Canada receives more refugee claims from the European Union (EU) than from Africa or Asia. Nearly all of the claims originating from the EU are withdrawn, abandoned or rejected.
These bogus claims cost Canadian taxpayers upwards of $170 million per year just in processing.
This is just one of the reasons our Government introduced Bill C-31.
This is the latest step our Government has taken to reduce, and hopefully eliminate, abuse of Canada's immigration system.
The new legislation will make our refugee system faster and fairer, while weeding out foreign criminals, bogus refugee claimants and human smugglers who exploit our immigration system.
It will work to put a stop to those who take advantage of our system, while at the same time helping to provide protection for those who are truly in need.
$1.65B saving
Not only that, but Bill C-31 will save hardworking Canadian taxpayers $1.65 billion over five years in health care, welfare, and other social services.
That astounding savings really helps to put in perspective the magnitude of the abuse of our immigration system.
Finally, Bill C-31 would provide the government with the authority to collect biometric data from those seeking entry into Canada.
This increased security should prevent Canada from being a "revolving door" for bogus refugees including those who are attempting re-entry after they have been deported.
As fraudsters become more sophisticated, biometrics will improve our ability to keep violent criminals and those who pose a threat to Canada out of our country.
Biometrics would help Canada
The use of biometrics would put Canada in line with most other western countries, such as Australia, the U.K., the European Union, Japan and the United States, which are already using or preparing to use biometrics in immigration matters.
Your Conservative Government will continue to work to build an immigration and refugee system that boosts our economy, creates new jobs and businesses, protects bonafide refugees and attracts the best and brightest from around the world.
