I'm still amazed the Fear Mongering works on so many citizens.

Some key reminders. In June 2013, the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) issued its first appeal to the international community for assistance in resettling extremely vulnerable Syrian refugees who had urgent protection needs.

Our compassion and fairness are a source of great pride for Canadians.

Under our legislation, all resettlement cases must be carefully screened to ensure that there are no issues related to security, criminality or health.

Canada’s refugee protection programs have helped the world’s most vulnerable, while ensuring the health and safety of Canadians.

Through our refugee protection programs, refugees bring their experiences and skills as well as their hopes and dreams to Canada which, in turn, has contributed to an even richer and more prosperous society for us all.
