hong: There are roughly 300,000 Canadians currently living in Hong Kong, according to CTV. All of those people are Canadian, and of course, dear Canadians living in Hong Kong, you are very, very welcome to come home anytime, Freeland said. She made the comment during a press conference Wednesday, just hours after U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson declared in an op-ed that his country would be willing to open the door to almost three million Hong Kong citizens. As the tensions continue to boil over in the region, Freeland would not commit to bringing in any specific amount of asylum seekers from Hong Kong. Canada continues to be a country that welcomes immigrants and asylum seeks from around the world, Freeland said. She did, however, emphasize Canada's general continued openness to those seeking refuge from dire situations abroad.
