## Resource

What happens when you invite the migrants of the world, as former prime minister Justin Trudeau did, to flood into Canada? You end up with an avalanche of false refugee claims, bad actors gaming the system to stall deportations, and Ottawa spending nearly $1 billion a year to provide gold-plated health plans for tens of thousands of people who shouldn’t even be here. Immigration lawyer and policy specialist Richard Kurland details for Brian the unmistakable abuse that some people are using to stay in Canada, despite not being eligible to settle here. And he explains how Trudeau’s wholesale wreckage of our once excellent screening, hearing and deportation system has made it easier than ever for them to keep doing it.
