In order to control the number of refugee claimants, the Canadian government is increasingly requiring an entry visa, which limits the number of travellers admitted to Canada. This requirement was most recently imposed on Czech and Mexican nationals. Canadian authorities say they are meeting their convention obligations since they process the claim of anyone arriving in the country to verify their need for protection. In fact, they create as many barriers as possible to prevent claimants from reaching Canada.
I would like to know if the signatories to the convention are concerned with this situation and if, in your opinion, it is now more difficult for people who really need protection than to hypothetical illegal claimants to overcome these barriers.
