Conditions faced by Irregular border-crossing asylum seekers at Roxham Road: What can we do?
November 18, 2022
Today, during the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration study of conditions faced by asylum-seekers entering Canada irregularly at Roxham Road, I asked the Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship about: -what additional steps we can take as a country to show compassion to those asylum seekers and move them from their temporary status to permanent residence. - what could be done to facilitate the entry of these asylum seekers into the workforce to help businesses who are short of workers. - the state of negotiations to modernize our current Safe Third Country Agreement with the United States To view the questions and answers: https://youtu.be/Bw47aXv19PE https://youtu.be/6y4mvd9W2NM https://youtu.be/itgL1fTR_wY
