Le 4 juillet, la Commission européenne annonçait son plan d’action pour aider l’Italie à faire face au flux constant de migrants venus trouver une vie meilleure par-delà la Méditerranée. Un plan ambitieux, mais entaché de propositions controversées.
Au moins 18 500 réfugiés de Birmanie ont traversé la frontière vers le Bangladesh voisin, fuyant les combats qui se poursuivaient mercredi entre l’armée birmane et les rebelles musulmans rohingyas.
The province had initially planned to use the cavernous Palais des congrès in Montreal to hand out social-assistance cheques to more than 4,000 people, part of the wave of asylum seekers who have come across the Canada-U.S. border in recent months. The government announced on Tuesday it would carry it out elsewhere, attributing the decision to the fact that fewer people than anticipated needed to pick up their cheques by hand. The shift occurred less than 24 hours before the start of the planned three-day operation.
Families looking to become Canadian permanent residents are being unfairly rejected by immigration officials, say legal experts, and in some cases the federal government may be breaking the law. The issue involves the government’s failure to provide specific cost estimates in “procedural fairness letters” given to people who could be denied due to so-called “medical inadmissibility.” According to immigration lawyers – as well as the Canadian Bar Association – the law requires that all procedural fairness letters clearly outline the government’s concerns with respect to an applicant’s medical condition or disability.
