immigration system: Andrew Griffith Debbie Douglas Harald Bauder Jeffrey Reitz Michael Bloom Kareem El-Assal By Nicholas Keung Immigration reporter Tues., Aug. 2, 2016 Having inherited an immigration system plagued with backlogs and heavy-handed enforcement, the Liberal government says it keen to hear what you think needs to be done about Canada immigration future, according to Toronto Star. Since the beginning of the summer, Immigration Minister John McCallum and his parliamentary secretary, Arif Virani, have held more than two dozen roundtable meetings across Canada with settlement services organizations, businesses and community groups to get their thoughts. Bowen uncle, aunt and two cousins were four of the 37 people from 18 different countries who became Canadians during the Canada Day celebration. Although the meetings are by invitation only — more are coming in August — the public can submit ideas by email to the minister. Submissions end Aug. 5. Since early July, more than 2,500 online submissions have been received. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
