As someone who Actually does pro Bono immigration work from time to time, I can say I have severe frustration with those who claim refugee status when there is no chance of success.

Bonafide refugees have experienced the worst parts of humanity. It isn't hardship. It is persecution and execution. They have endured and we can find a place for them in Canada. It is the right thing to do. Where they struggle though, is with a public perception that they are cheats who manipulated the system to get free stuff. This perception is propagated by the false claimants.

I can tell you that I support a lot of what Kenney is doing. I can also tell you that my opinion in not shared by most immigration and refugee lawyers. Its a tough gig that Kenney has and there are difficult decisions to make.
