Executive Director: Refugees and Shachi Kurl

executive director: We're well beyond a small minority or a fringe minority point right now, Kurl said, according to Huffington Post Canada. We're now into significant minorities of people. There has been a growing number of Canadians expressing concern over both the speed and the amount of refugees being resettled in Canada, Shachi Kurl, executive director of the Angus Reid Institute, told The Huffington Post Canada in an interview. President Trump banned resettlement of Syrian refugees in the U.S. indefinitely last month. In response, the Canadian government announced it would stand firm on its previous plan to resettle a total of 40,000 refugees this year, including 25,000 from Syria. In the same executive order, the president also barred people from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the country for 120 days. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
