Canada Global(Web News)This information has been given by official sources. This new rule of the federal government will come into effect from 11:30 pm on Thursday night. Last month, the Conservatives called on the government to re-impose these visa rules. Concerns were being expressed by the Conservatives over the rejection of refugee claims. It is important to mention here that the number of asylum applications received by Canada from Mexico has increased
alarmingly in the last few years. But applicants from Mexico are receiving less refugee status than applicants from other countries.
This is partly due to the government’s decision in 2016 to end the visa requirement for Mexicans. The decision made it easier for Mexicans to seek asylum in Canada. The Tories say the change has made the asylum system overburdened with fraud and abuse. At the same time, there was a delay in accepting the applications of the legitimate claimants.
