Canada’s new immigration act is an ‘attack on refugee and migrant rights,’ critics say
On March 26, the Liberal government passed Bill C-12, the Strengthening Canada’s Immigration System and Borders Act, into law. The bill received significant backlash from advocacy and human rights groups, with Amnesty International publishing a joint statement with 28 signatories, including the Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) and the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), calling it “egregious” and an “attack on refugee and migrant rights.”
