Our organization has a system whereby we find a member who is a resident of Canada and who is a relative of the refugee. We communicate so that instead of a refugee having to settle into a hotel or somewhere else, he can stay with someone. As long as there is someone who's a relative and who's willing to accommodate a person or a family temporarily until the new arrival has been able to find a job and can rent his own apartment, it's a plan with no problems at all.
We have been doing the sponsoring this way, bringing many refugees to this country, without any payments from the government for the first year.
