Canada should loosen visa requirements to allow more Ukrainian refugees: Report

The study by the University of Calgary’s School of Public Policy released Thursday says that compared to other countries, Canada has received a small number of the millions of Ukrainians who have been displaced since Russia invaded the eastern European country in February.

As of June 22, there were approximately 190,000 Ukrainians with pending applications to come to Canada, up from 140,000 about one month earlier.tap here to see other videos from our teamFalconer said the program, requiring those arriving to have visas, is to blame for Canada lagging behind other countries – most notably Ireland, which has waived its visa requirement.

Falconer said federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies, with proper resources, would be able to manage security risks involving the visa process. He recommends Canada adopt the Irish model or another option to do visa checks once people arrive.Article content Falconer said an overwhelming number of Canadians support bringing in a high number of Ukrainian refugees and our country has the highest percentage of people of Ukrainian descent next to Ukraine and Russia.Article content

I figured it was already a open door seeing the nonstop gang violence from imports while blaming the pot bellied 60 year old that wants to go to the gun range to shoot his pistols.

That will certainly help improve our healthcare won’t it? I think other countries need to step up. We are overflowing and our healthcare can’t handle what we already have!

ummm NO THANKS

No they can stay in ukraine. There is no war.

No

Nope

Now tell us about what the 200 other countries are doing... We'll wait.

Why doesn't Canada take care of Canadians first we are put on the back burner our Healthcare system is collapsing people cannot even see a doctor you can't even get in a emergency room people can't afford to live you can't afford to rent or buy but let's overpopulate our country.

Ukrainian's are not as important as 'other immigrants' There should be NO VISA for Ukrainian's Just ask Finance Minister Freeland another Ukrainian success story

Allow more? Thats fine but then they’d get hung up for weeks with ArriveCan.

Tell them to come in thru Roxham Rd

Or how about we try & broker a peace so they don't have to come here?
