The Globe and Mail – Should Refugees be Welcomed to Canada with Debt?
In what was at first presented as a compassionate gesture, the Liberal government announced last month that it was waiving the travel loans for 25,000 Syrian refugees. People who have lost everything will not be expected to repay the costs of transportation and medical exams they had incurred by being admitted into Canada – roughly $10,000 for a family of four. […] Unlike the select Syrians, most refugees allowed into Canada each year are financed by government loans that they are obligated to repay – beginning within 30 days of their arrival, according to official policy.
CBC – Syrian Refugees: Housing for Large Families Tough to Find
That volunteer was Houda Ajaj of the Syrian Canadian Council. She was at Windsor airport to greet 15 refugees Tuesday and could be there for a lot more, considering the city anticipates to see about 88 people arrive from Syria by Friday.

The Tyee – Salvadoran Refugee Calls for Canada to Fix Asylum Bureaucracy
The Langley, B.C. church had been Figueroa’s de facto prison since 2013, after the Canada Border Services Agency ordered him returned to his home country because he’d once been a professed member of a group involved in El Salvador’s 13-year civil war, the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN). That leftist group, formed in 1980 to resist the country’s U.S.-backed and bloody military regime, has now long been a peacetime political party in the Central American country.
As he watches his former colleagues go all out to resettle thousands of Syrian refugees by the end of this year, the civil servant who helped run Canada’s last major refugee resettlement program says he’s concerned that politics is getting in the way of policy. Gerry Van Kessel says he’s frustrated by the game he feels the Liberal government is playing by constantly affixing and changing targets for their Syrian refugee program.

Des experts estiment que ces dérives racistes ne sont pas spécifiques à la Corse, mais appartiennent à un mouvement plus général, en France et en Europe. Des experts livrent leur analyse sur les récentes démonstrations de racisme en Corse, qui répondent, selon eux, à certaines spécificités insulaires, mais sont aussi symptomatiques de tensions identitaires observées ailleurs en France et en Europe.
