| Canada Visa From Us :- The tragic events of September 11th in the United States have raised questions about Canada's immigration policies. The United States Ambassador to Canada and some lawmakers south of the border have strongly suggested that Canadian immigration policies be harmonized with US immigration policies. Canadian authorities must not and cannot accede to such requests. A proper response to these events indeed necessitates a re-examination of the manner in which foreign nationals are permitted entry to and through Canada’s borders. Staunch defenders of Canada’s sovereignty will no doubt point to the weaknesses within the American immigration system, which may have permitted entry of those individuals responsible for the terrorist bombings through its own borders from Canada or more likely, from other entry points. Even more pressing at this juncture, is the immediate need to evaluate the manner in which government agencies regulate the airline and maritime industries in Canada and the United States to ensure the safe movement of passengers and goods within and between our countries. Airport and airline security in both countries has obvious flaws and the security breaches that are present at our seaports are no less than problematic. Equally apparent is the abject failure by US law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, the CIA and the NSA who once again failed to detect the efforts by an established network of terrorists who undertook sophisticated and prolonged efforts to unleash such devastation and destruction on American soil. But, as a partner to one of the greatest economic alliances the world has ever known, and a country whose national security is deeply dependent on the United States, how does the Canadian Government respond to the hard facts brought to light by the Canadian Secret Intelligence Service, that more than 50 militant groups such as the Al Qaeda group of Osama bin Laden, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Tamil Tigers, Sikh militants, as well as former war criminals from Rwanda, Bosnia and other genocide bearing countries continue to find safe haven and carry out their fund raising activities within Canada? Moreover, can it not be argued that Canada’s immigration refugee policies, which permit unconditional entry into the country of thousands of undocumented claimants each year, create increased risk to our national security? In reply, Canadian immigration officials no doubt, will quickly point
to the planned implementation of Bill C-11 an exhaustive legislative replacement
to the current Immigration Act, which passed through the Liberal controlled
Parliament this summer and is being debated this week by the Liberal dominated
Senate for imminent approval. Immigration officials will also point to
a new omnibus bill that was recently introduced to facilitate the deportation
of refugee claimants who are suspected of harboring links to known terrorist
groups as well as individuals with criminal backgrounds. |
