The member of parliament for Québec Solidaire Amir Khadir is convinced that the policies put forward by the president of the United States turns people off to Canada.

“We are facing a very special problem of the fact that Mr. Trump, with his policies, scares people who fear for their safety, who fear detention and having to go back to where they are parties “, he laments.

Amir Khadir applaud the manner in which the influx of migrants has been managed so far, but hope that the canadian government will do everything it can to ” facilitate the efforts to regularize the situation of asylum-seekers “.

“I think that, for the moment, we can’t criticize the opening by Mr [Denis] Coderre and Ms. [Kathleen] Weil, minister of Immigration. […] We have a duty of solidarity towards all those who knock at our door in a situation of humanitarian crisis, ” he argues.

“I would like that it was pointed out that Canada is […] mingles business in haiti for 40 years and we have our share of responsibilities in the continuing instability facing the country since the past 15 years,” says the member of parliament for Mercier.

It invites Quebecers are more recalcitrant to the arrival of migrants to more openness, recalling that other countries welcome more asylum seekers than Quebec currently.
