Canada's New Immigration Law: A Major Shift in Refugee Rights

Published 5 days, 11 hours ago
Description

Canadas new immigration law, effective since June 2022, disallows around nineteen thousand asylum claims filed between June and October 2025. The Strengthening Canada’s Immigration System and Borders Act applies rules retroactively, affecting claimants who arrived after June 2020. The law also blocks asylum for irregular migrants crossing from the U.S. at unofficial land points. Critics argue its the biggest cut to refugee rights in over a decade, while the government cites a backlog of nearly three hundred thousand claims as the reason for these changes. Legal experts anticipate court battles over the laws constitutionality and Canadas global duties on asylum.
