I think we have to be honest and admit that a lot(not saying all) Nigerians tried to game the system by crossing the border illegally from US and claiming asylum when their situation back in Nigeria really did not meet the threshold to be a refugee. IMO only people from war torn countries should really be claiming asylum particularly kids.

I don't think any immigrant should ever become anti-immigration but at the same time there is nothing wrong in calling for caution when accepting people in. Everyone who became a PR through EE , Student route or PNP or even refugee had to go through a lot of rigorous processes. I personally do not support any shortcuts and will not support any govt that allows shortcuts(not saying the current government is) as it makes those of us who followed process look stupid.

Every country has their threshold of what a refugee consists off. Furthermore, no developed country allows back-door immigration. Every immigrate has to go through certain processes.

You find it difficult to follow simple request to discuss maturely and professionally without resorting to name calling. This is sad. Well, it is obvious that you are just an attention seeker and I am not going to give you the attention you badly crave for. I will also not stoop so low to your level. You can believe whatever you want to believe about me.

Quote me as many times as you want and also label me anything you want. I will no longer dignify you with a response because you simply do not deserve it.

I'm calling out your nonsense and you can't handle it.

maternal:

My point is Nigerians were lying about their situation to make it seem like they met the threshold, when in fact their true situation back in Nigeria does not meet the threshold Canada has.

SixSigma1:


@Refcan:

First, I sympathize with you on your condition and situation as nobody should have to live like that.

Secondly, thank you very much for this post. Your post is very mature, civil and professional. Rather than responding like a tout like I see some people do here, your post is different. It is the type of post that people should be posting here to share their view even when it differs from the view of other people. That is the beauty of our Canadian democracy and our Canadian value!

As the election is over, I do not want to dwell further on it but just want to move on. However, I need to make it clear again that the election was not all about immigration or amount of refugee being allowed in. In the grand scheme of things, Immigration is way low among the many concerns that many people have.

Now to some of the points that you raised, I have said it several times since this discussion started that I am not saying that refugee do not contribute all. What I am saying is that a lot of them do not. I am saying this because I know and not because of what some politicians are saying. You happen to be one of the few exemptions that are not here to game the system but are trying hard to contribute to the system. Good job for you on that.

Furthermore, my position is not that refugee should not be accepted[b] but the amount to be accepted should the at the level that the government have enough tax payer’s money to take care of. This will prevent the situation where you and other refugee are finding yourselves in the camp and outside of the camp like you explained.[/b]

My position is that If the government has enough money to bring in even 10 million refugees in a year without increasing taxes or borrowing money that runs into many billions of dollars to do so, by all means they can go ahead. If the government can not do so without additional debt or tax increase, then the government should only admit the amount of refugee it can adequately take care of without putting too much burden on the tax payer’s by unnecessary increasing taxes and putting us into debt that our future generations will not be able to pay back. This is what I am asking for and I don’t think it is too much to ask.

Finally, this is not to disrespect you (because you have actually earned my respect with your mature and professional response), I will no longer be commenting on this topic.

Your ignorance is appalling on the refugee subject. It's borderline spreading hate towards immigration.

1. Show credible evidence where most refugees in Canada do not contribute to the system when they're on their feet ? If you can on here, I'll leave this specific thread for good.

2. Canada doesn't have refugee camps. They have processing centers. It's an area where the RCMP and CBSA checks each individual for criminality and a health check to determine if they can let out to the general public. If they can they are given temp shelter until they can find a place. Refcan said he went to a local YMCA. Since when is that a camp ?

3. The government accepts refugees based on a carefully calculated budget. The Syrian refugee's accepted years ago are an example of that. Their arrival was well prepared for and calculated. Not saying all their transition has been smooth. What you're talking about is IRREGULAR refugees. That is refugees walking up to the Canadian border from the U.S without notice. NO government can anticipate that. None. Your leader Andrew S who claimed he'd stop "illegal migration" showed how stupid the Cons are and their voters. Once someone comes to Canada through the U.S in an unofficial port, Canada must hear their claim. Furthermore, Canada must process them as no sane government would allow a refugee into the general public without vetting them. In short, NO government would or could do anything different in terms of processing IRREGULAR refugee claims at the border, than what's already happening now. Canada signed the U.N refugee convention in 1969. Meaning regardless of which party is in power, Canada recognized that it has obligations towards refugees, that protecting refugees is not simply a humanitarian gesture, but a legal requirement by the Canadian government. The Supreme Court of Canada confirmed this in the landmark 1985 Singh decision, which found that the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees refugee claimants’ basic rights. If you have issues with IRREGULAR refugees, try to get into the house of commons to change the law. Until Canada leaves the convention, what the state gives refugee is their right.

4. Spoke like a true Con supporter. "Putting us into debt", "our future generation". Now you be patriot. Where was this patriotism when you were trying to leave naija ? Why didn't you keep the same energy while in naija ? If the current Liberal gov't didn't spend money on extra federal police (rcmp) or extra border service officers, and allowed each IRREGULAR refugee to enter the country without being vetted, you'd be the first one shouting "the liberals are putting us in danger and being irresponsible by letting people just walk through the border". Public safety comes first, followed by the rule of law. ANY party would spend millions at the border if they had too. This is not a party issue. I suggest to learn the difference between refugees and IRREGULAR refugees, and stop spreading hate and fear towards the refugee community.

A wealthy person has many ways of getting papers. They usually don't game the system. These people come in different ways. Maybe use their life-savings to try to cross into Canada from the U.S to try their luck. Some come for business, maybe they have a business conference, then cross, and so forth. It's easy to judge when you're a Nigerian-Canadian and you enjoy one of the best quality of life. If the roles were reverse, it'd be funny how many people change their perspective. Like they say, "Never mock a pain you haven't endured. Because when life hits you, you might become everything you ever criticized" I'm not a thief, but I'd never judge a poor man who has to steal to survive.

As a matter of fact
Most of us here are not

If we are facing the short end of the stick like most Nigerians
We will not even bother running the express entry program in the first place

Even those of us fleeing

Is it not because of the dilapidated mess that Nigeria has become (which btw is largely in part due to the illiterate; unexposed and barbaric way of most Nigerian )

I refuse to delude myself
It's clear for all to see.

Most of Africa and Africans conduct themselves no different from animals

That comment in bold is quite a stupid one to make. If you or the people around you conduct yourselves like animals, then I can understand, and you definitely have my sympathy, but sweeping generalizations backed with nothing more than emotions is a sign of unintelligence.

If I may ask, how many African countries have you visited? How many Africans, other than those from your country of origin, have you worked or interacted with?

I think we all need to take a chill pill on this thread. There's quite a number of name calling, abuses et all that's been springing up again. We all can do better

I have at least 5 friends that are asylum claimants. One is already approved. One denied, going for appeal. 3 are still pending.
I don't blame people for trying to run away from Nigeria wahala. It's just that there's no sincere way to do that in Canada. Every Nigerian refugee claimant I have met, is determined to feed them bullocks at the hearings. I probably would do same if I were in their shoes.

I am not here to go into the details about how many refugees game the system or not. There is not a doubt that the asylum system puts more stress on the economy compared to the EE. People that campaigned against it are not totally wrong. It is just that they exaggerate the situation. If I was able to vote, I would have voted the red party. I believe what they need to put in place however, is a better system, to make sure people are more productive and reduce leakages.

The story of the Irish-Nigerian who came to seek asylum in Canada comes to mind. I have been pondering in futility about what inspired such decision.

Refcan:
@sixsigma1
I am a refugee in Canada and based on my personal experience, I would disagree with some of your submissions.
I am saying personal experience because I cannot speak for other people. But to a large extent, the same applies for a lot of refugees as most of us are in the same shoes.
I will just give you a brief summary of my experience and I will let you judge with an open mind If we are having it better than those coming in through with express entry or if we are not contributing to Canada economically.
Came in around April 2018, spent 4 days in the processing centre which we call sandwich place cos we eat sandwich morning afternoon and night.
After processing, we were taken to YMCA who made which is a free shelter and you're not expected to spend more than a month before you get your own accommodation. By that time you should have been processed for welfare and your work permit.
So by May ending, we got $1200 for a family of 4. IE 2 adults and 2 children. So we had to leave the shelter to get our own accommodation. No work yet because work permit was not yet ready.
Got a $750 one room apartment and started work July.
Work was $12/hr
Immediately you start working, welfare checks stops, and any welfare check you collect after working, you will have to pay the government back... You can't escape that.
So in my case, only got welfare for 2 months.
As you start to work, you pay taxes like every other Canadian, but as a refugee claimant, you don't get benefits like everyone else.
You will be denied many things because you don't have a status yet.
No subsidized daycare, you pay full $35 to $40 per day as opposed to $8.25 fault for PR. Due to this wife could not work as my children were still very young
No access to any form of child benefits (maybe until after 18 months) , no gst
Most banks will even decline to issue you a credit card, you have to hunt for banks or sometimes different branches of the same bank so you can at least build your credit score
You mentioned free prescription... It's not all drugs that are covered, you still have to pay for most stuffs. Most cheap over the counter drugs like Advil, Tylenol etc are covered though. Dental is not covered if you're already working, except you are on welfare and I think it's after 1 year
Can't go to school, no access to grants
In Quebec PR are paid to learn French, refugee claimants are not paid.
Now I have a $20/hr job, which means I'm contributing more to the economy but still do not have access to many things.
As maternal said, I do believe the liberal government are not stupid and there are calculations behind the scenes
Ever wonder why mothers that cannot work because of their kids are usually processed first for hearing I think it's simply because they are currently not contributing to the economy, so they can easily get their verdict on time and be accepted or rejected.
This will be my 18th month now in Canada and we are still waiting for our hearing. Some that came after us have already been called.
Trust me, they know what they are doing.
Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining or whatsoever, I am just giving you real life facts and not the propaganda you hear all over the place.

I have to ask: how do you come to the realization that people who side step the official and laid down regulations for residing in Canada permanently are not gaming the system?

There are loopholes in the immigration system, anybody who exploits said loopholes by cooking up untrue stories of fleeing from persecution is doing the wrong thing. Anyhow you try to dice it this is a bad thing and it should not be condoned or glossed over.

Whether you realize it or not your comment is a lame attempt at justifying a bad thing. No doubt it will appeal to all the bleeding hearts who are not forthright in their ways – or at least not forthright when it comes to the project of relocating to a new country. A personal project, by the way, which should represent the opportunity to ‘restart’ life on a clean, fresh, slate.

Also, what pains have these people who you make excuses for endured that other Nigerians who have decided to go through the legitimate process of relocation not endured? Do the people who take the trouble to write language exams, raise the funds or meet the other stipulations as required by the immigration process live in an alternate Nigeria where there are no struggles, pains or hardships?

This

1. Nobody is condoning anything. Is there loopholes in the system, would people exploit it ? Of course. But I can't say most Nigerian refugee claimant are not legit. Simply put, I don't know all of them. You know the perception that most successful Nigerians are doing 419. Such perception are not fair to say.

2. My comments appeal to honest human beings, who know whether one wants to admit it or not, gaming the system is human nature. The hypocritical saints on these board bashing some refugees for gaming the system, I guarantee if you look in their past, you'd find how they have gamed the system at least once in their life. If people don't usually game the system, then why do we need police as a society ? The FBI just caught wealthy Hollywood actors paying million in bribes to have their kids admitted into Ivy League schools in the states. Isn't that gaming the system ? Haven't you ever went to a job, even in Canada, and the head manager is the uncle of the supervisor. And the supervisor is the cousin to your fellow co-worker. Do you think this is a coincidence ? Everyone will do whats in their best interests, full stop !

3. alternate Nigeria where there are no struggles, pains or hardships?

Yes !! Everyone's situation in naija is different. Do you know how many people I know are qualified for the EE, but can't afford to the application fee process, exam, necessary money needed to have in one's account to migrate, etc. You think migrating is cheap ? Only a few selective people can afford it. You think everyone works for Shell, or their papa was a gov't official who was able to steal money ? Not saying their aren't some legit Nigerians who can afford the immigration process. But if one can't go through the front door, they'll try the back. Again that's human nature. It's called survival instinct. Wasn't Canada built from gaming the system sef

4. It never fails to amaze me how quickly the tunes change after we get robbed by said thief

If naija I'd kill the thief. If Canada I'd call police. The same way he has to do what he has to do, I have too as well. I wouldn't judge them though. Just like how the police doesn't judge the criminal, and vice versa. It's nothing personal.

A short story as this topic reminds me of a distant (not 1st) cousin. Her father was a big thief. I won't say which ministry he worked in during the late 90's but he stole millions in dollars USD. They went to the best schools abroad. She did her masters in the U.K. Came-back to naija, got an amazing job making big money. From the day she was born, she never had to worry about money. She swore she'd never living abroad, and use to laugh at people who were abroad legally and doing minimal jobs. Or people who were illegal trying to game the system. Flash forward to 3 years ago. She's been cut off from her wealthy father as he's spending his money on his retirement. She lost her job, spent over a year without a job and her savings were depleted. If you see how fast she went to apply for the EE you'd laugh. She was denied as her age doesn't favor her (she's 40), and is now trying to game the system in every way. She went from laughing at certain people, to being those people. My point ? Lets please stop the hypocrisy here.

This is unrelated to the refugee topic; however, this is actually big in Canada. i.e. nepotism aka man know man.

My last employer had a husband, wife and wife's cousin working in the same office.

Moved on to recent employer in a different province, and I have worked in 3 different offices/dept.
Offices had the following characteristics:

Office A: Husband and wife, a co-worker and her bro-in-law.
Office B: Father and son, fiance & fiancee.
Office C (Current office): Husband & wife, father & two son, father & daughter & son & in-law, father & 2 sons (intern students), brother & sister.

I am still discovering other relations on a weekly basis since it's a big company.

I have also deliberately left out relations working in different dept. Those ones are too numerous to mention.

Although all are qualified for the jobs. It will be hard to prove that they are breaking any rules (if they can avoid conflict of interests). It's definitely not a coincidence that they all found themselves where they are.

Now to the refugee topic:
I am not sure the refugees or people claiming to be refugees are commiting a crime by showing up at the border. Their cases would be heard by an immigration judge, and if he/she finds them inadmissible, deportation order would proceed. Let's leave the job to CIC to determine who is admissible or not. I actually learnt that most rejection rate of people crossing over from the US is actually high. The immigration judge usually tells applicants to move to a different city within Nigeria then rejects the applications.
Out of 2,532 applications processed in 2018, 755 were accepted and 1777 were rejected. I am suprised that Nigeria has the highest number of pending applications though.

I edited my original post. It was actually a shock to me as I never witnessed such in the German company I worked for in naija and the companies I worked for in the UK. I always thought nepotism was a Nigerian thing till I got to North America.

They might have not been the best interviewed or most qualified candidates for the job, but once they have the minimal qualifications, they are in. I do not blame them sha. These jobs are well paying. I would do same too if I were in their shoes aslong as it is legal.
