À CV égal, les chances que les employeurs de la ville de Québec convoquent en entrevue un candidat qui porte un nom franco-québécois étaient deux fois plus élevées que pour un candidat au nom maghrébin. C’est ce qu’a découvert Jean-Philippe Beauregard, étudiant au doctorat à l’Université Laval, en envoyant des paires de CV à 202 employeurs de la région de Québec.
Dans un point de presse du 7 mai 2018, le ministre fédéral des Transports, Marc Garneau, lançait une déclaration-choc en estimant que plus de 90 % des demandeurs d’asile récemment entrés irrégulièrement au pays voient ou verront leur demande d’asile rejetée au Canada.

The report suggested TransLink or the government provide a subsidized bus pass for recent immigrants or young refugees.
The trip comes as the federal government faces pressure to show it is controlling the influx of people entering the country to ask for protection. The RCMP intercepted more than 5,000 claimants at the irregular border crossings in the first three months of the year and another 2,500 in April alone. Mr. Hussen will travel to Nigeria to speak to both American and senior Nigerian authorities; Canadian immigration officials are already working with U.S. visa officers in the West African country.
After Haitians in 2017, it appears Nigerians armed with valid U.S. visitor visas are the latest group to come across at Roxham Road in Hemmingford, not far from the Lacolle border crossing at the Quebec-New York border. Federal Immigration Minister Ahmed Hussen will head to Nigeria in the coming weeks amid an influx of nationals from that country seeking asylum in Canada in recent months. Three senior federal ministers delivered a blunt reminder to them Monday that entering Canada illegally is not a free pass into the country.
