⚠️ 🚫 Canada warns claiming asylum is ‘not easy’ with new global ad campaign☹️
[Canada’s refugee system faces a 260,000-case backlog amid growing global displacement. The government has little control over who claims asylum.]
"Once presenting itself as one of the world’s most welcoming countries to refugees and immigrants, Canada is launching a global online ad campaign cautioning asylum-seekers that making a claim is hard.
The C$250,000 ($178,662) in advertisements will run through March in 11 languages, including Spanish, Urdu, Ukrainian, Hindi and Tamil, the immigration department told Reuters. They are part of a broader shift in tone by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s unpopular government on immigration and an effort to clamp down on refugee claims."

Search queries such as “how to claim asylum in Canada” and “refugee Canada” will prompt sponsored content titled “Canada’s asylum system – Asylum Facts,” the ministry said.

“Claiming asylum in Canada is not easy. There are strict guidelines to qualify. Find out what you need to know before you make a life-changing decision,” one ad reads.

@SnowshadowII @GottaLaff my tinfoil hat has been heating up for all of Bidens administration. The only excuse i can come up with for not fixing the border in the US, and then supporting the R bill by Kamala, is that some people know how quickly climate migrations are going to ramp up.

@SnowshadowII @GottaLaff im hoping that it's just my brain overthinking things. There could be a possibility that expected climate outcomes are worse than we are experiencing, and rich countries are finding ways to lock the borders before refugees start moving en masse.
