1.4 million visa applications were rejected by the Canadian government

Canada seems to have strict laws and polices regarding incoming visitors.

This article outlines how many people were denied visa.

Terrorists, espionage or subversion.

Can Canadians confirm these policies for the rest of us?


'Would you lie to me'? 1.4 million visa applications were rejected by the Canadian government

More than 300 foreign terrorists, spies and criminals who pose a risk to Canada’s national security tried to sneak into Canada last year, according to a report quietly released by the federal government on Monday.

It outlines all visa applications rejected between November 2015 and December 2016, and the grounds for refusal.

There were 310 cases where an individual was found inadmissible under Section 34 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) — the section dealing with national security concerns.

Among these 310 were seven individuals rejected for “engaging in terrorism,” nine for “engaging in an act of espionage or subversion,” and 13 for “subversion by force” against any government.

Sounds like thems Canadians are a bunch of racist sexist homophobic xenophobic bigots.

My sister tried to move to Canada to be with her fiance, but after rejected twice aver a few years, they settled in the US.

So they have a vetting system and it apparently works? Good for them.

Yep. They didn't let people in until they were sure they were safe.

Hmm... why is that wrong for the US to do again?

a reply to: xuenchen

I don't recall anyone ever saying vetting people applying for entry into a country was a bad thing. I'm sure the US rejected just as many Visas. Vetting works, I'm glad to see you get that finally.

Can you cite anyone, anywhere ever saying that vetting is bad?

Well that's a little different than the lefty "NoWall NoBorders" nonsense we've heard over the last couple weeks.

I've had numerous liberal friends asking which country they can move to now that Trump's in office. I simply told them to write down a list of all the countries with no borders who accept everyone, then pick one. Go.

Never got a response. Lol.

PM Trudeau is literally Hitler!

No borders!

Duh. It's pretty easy to vet someone from another country when they have a government now isn't it?

a reply to: Kali74

I've been seeing the argument in this very site since my return last summer, this position that not only the idea that there shouldn't be borders (at some point in the future), but that it needs to be the way things are handled now. Just because I dont keep a score sheet for every time it doesn't happen doesn't make it not so. It's the cream of liberal globalism. Google "no borders" should bring a bunch of pages up (also try google images).

They sure do. But who forgot to inform CNN about it?

Yeah 95% of the Liberal nut jobs protesting Trump for his TEMPORARY immigration ban.
Don't even try to tell me otherwise.

So it should be easy to cite, right?

I'll wait.

Prove it.

I can cite the vast majority of the main stream media, entertainment industry, academia, and even Trump haters on ATS going berzerk about Trump level of increased vetting including a TEMPORARY ban from war torn areas.

Is your point that Canadas and Obama's level of vetting was the exact perfect amount, and anything more than that makes you a fascist bigot as most of the insane left is saying?

a reply to: IgnoranceIsntBlisss

No borders means... people fleeing hell should be allowed to flee, not that there shouldn't be common sense security measures in place.
