As Canada reaches the halfway point of meeting its commitment to resettle 40,000 Afghan refugees, Immigration Minister Sean Fraser says he’s not ruling out lifting the current cap and welcoming more into this country. But for the moment, he says, his main focus is the 8,500 people to whom Canada has already promised refuge who remain stuck in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.
Nargis and six of her family members arrived in Edmonton in January 2022. The 17-year-old fled Kabul with her three brothers, sister in law and parents when Kabul fell to the Taliban in August 2021. Catholic Social Services helped the family find accommodations, offered settlement support, counselling and orientation sessions to adjust to life in Canada. Nargis was part of a group of 170 Afghan refugees — about half of which were under 18 years old — that came to Edmonton.

The number of temporary foreign workers in Quebec has climbed more quickly than anywhere else in Canada, but experts say resources to prevent exploitation haven’t kept up, leading to more workers deserting farms for illegal work elsewhere in Quebec or across the border. The provincial government under Coalition Avenir Québec’s François Legault, who is seeking re-election on Oct. 3, has refused to increase immigration, despite a critical labour shortage set to only get worse in a booming economy with an aging population and declining birth rate.

It can be difficult to ascertain what François Legault actually believes about immigration. After a couple of middling election results in 2012 and 2014, however, Legault began to raise immigration with increasing frequency. His proposal to cut immigration levels and impose a values test on newcomers were centrepieces of the party’s platform in 2018, for example, when it swept to power with a convincing majority. But then as now, when Legault speaks about immigration, he’s liable to utter falsehoods, contradictions, or to flirt with outright xenophobia — often before correcting himself.

La ministre des Affaires étrangères, Mélanie Joly, n’est pas d’accord avec la décision des pays européens de ne pas délivrer de visa aux ressortissants russes, qui risquent maintenant de vouloir fuir leur pays. Mme Joly explique que la décision du président Vladimir Poutine de recruter plus de militaires pour mener sa guerre en Ukraine montre le désarroi du régime, qui, selon elle, met les citoyens russes en danger.
This summer, Nova Scotia notified the federal government that it will end a contract with Canada Border Services Agency to hold immigration detainees in provincial correctional centres. British Columbia was the first province to make this move, terminating its contract in July. Both Nova Scotia and British Columbia’s agreements with Canada Border Services Agency require 12 months’ notice for termination, meaning both provinces will continue to hold federal immigration detainees into next summer.
