Ottawa’s proposed immigration reforms will restrict asylum seekers access to hearings
June 4, 2025
The federal government’s proposed immigration reforms will restrict some asylum seekers’ access to formal refugee hearings, a move critics say undermines Canada’s legal commitments to asylum claimants and may serve to drive migrants underground.The new powers aim to tackle “rising migration pressures,” according to the federal immigration department, including by improving border security and making Canada’s asylum system more “resilient.”
Indigenous demonstrations against both the federal and Ontario governments unfolded at multiple sites across the province Tuesday, as protesters rallied against initiatives to fast-track major infrastructure projects.
