undocumented migrants: A separate Reuters/Ipsos poll found Americans feel similarly about illegal immigration, with 50 per cent of adults supporting deportation, according to Huffington Post Canada. Nearly half 46 per cent also said they disapprove of how Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government is handling the issue of illegal border crossings. Just over one-third of respondents 36 per cent felt Canada should accept undocumented migrants and allow them to seek refugee status, while 48 per cent said they want to see an increase in deportations. One of the reasons why Canada remains an open country is Canadians have confidence in our immigration system, the integrity of our borders, and the help we provide people who are seeking relief and a better life, Trudeau said on Feb. 21 during question period.

We will continue to strike that balance between having a rigorous system and accepting those who are in need.
