Federal Immigration Minister Jason Kenney: Canada

Toronto City Council Dept: Council s motion tries to help illegal immigrants to stay in Canada, and we think that s the wrong message to send, Kenney said Friday, according to The Star. Council voted Thursday to consider how to make it easier for undocumented migrants to access municipal services, such as public health, shelters and food banks. It also reaffirmed its role as Canada s first sanctuary city. Federal Immigration Minister Jason Kenney has criticized Toronto City Council s move to become a sanctuary city for undocumented migrants, saying it sends mixed signals and is counterproductive to Ottawa s effort in discouraging illegal migration. If you re here illegally, please respect our laws and go back to your country. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
