yeah i’ve been checking recently. I asked my lawyer and she said it shouldn’t affect me but who knows

C-12 bill is likely towards fake refugees. Fake students including too.

Students are now required to report to immigration if they get letters.

All those happening are good things for legit asylum seekers. Our cases will be getting shorter hearing and faster processing hopefully

Nope, I am a real refugee and I got a letter too. You can't target fake refugees by applying a law in bulk rather than a case by case basis.

The number of times I've openly heard Uber drivers telling me how "made a story" and "got a PR" tells me otherwise. When EE has so much of fraud (despite so many checks), Refugee and H&C are definitely one of those places where blanket actions are needed. Case-by-case puts the burden back on taxpayers who don't want it - the burden of these things should be on the applicants, not the extremely overburdened tax payer tbh.

I agree that the asylum system has been overburdened, and I know that change needed to be made, but not in a way that real asylum seekers are caught in the middle of it.

Are you an asylum seeker/protected person?

The highest integrity programs have high levels of fraud in it - which makes Refugee programs far far more prone to fraud. And hence, the appeal of "case-by-case" dies with it. If we can, redirecting the funds being spent on countless fake applications should be redirected towards citizens that are clearly struggling. We are swinging the pendulum too left for virtue signaling, it would equally swing right once it reaches the highest point and that would hurt more people than the new proposed system would.
