Openness Approach: Screening Refugees and News Conference

openness approach: MAHMUD SALEH / AFP/GETTY IMAGES FILE PHOTO By Nicholas Keung Immigration reporter Fri., Feb. 24, 2017 U.S. President Donald Trump's plans for extreme vetting of migrants may seem a stark contrast to Ottawa's openness approach, but the two countries' systems are more closely aligned than many people would like to believe, according to Toronto Star. Trump's stance on immigrants and refugees cannot be more different from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's. Canada and the U.S. have similar measures for screening refugees before they come to North America. That contradiction was on full display at their joint news conference at the White House after the two leaders' recent first meeting in Washington. It's much more than toughness. We cannot let the wrong people in and I won't, Trump told to reporters, vowing a program of extreme vetting for migrants. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
