It is not fair that refugees are accepted into Canada faster than independent immigrants who desire to be in the country. The independent immigrant may be a more skilled worker or business immigrant, and may fit requirements of the Immigration point system better than the refugee. If not a serious worker, the refugee may become a burden on the countries economy. Making the independent immigrant more deserving. The refugee can also take advantage of the countries taxing and work system and become reliant on the government. Because the government must support the refugee, he or she may not become a strong member of society. The refugee can also be lying about the direct threat to his or her life. He or She may take advantage of the political situation in their home country and enter Canada under false refugee claims.

Of Course! The Canadian immigration act provides for application of permanent residency. Immigration regulations provide for the admission of 3 categories of immigrants: family class (closely related persons), independent immigrants (admitted on the basis of skill, capital and labor-market requirements) and refugees. When processing applicants, immigration officers are instructed to give priority to persons seeking family reunification and to refugees. Independent applicants without family but with required skills or capital are considered next. Canada's immigration policy is nondiscriminatory regarding ethnicity; however, individuals suffering diseases likely to endanger public health, or those without any apparent means of financial support, or those known to be criminals or terrorists can be excluded.

The US never really goes into detail about Canada in most text books. But Canada played its part in WWII. and I believe that Canada took in some immigrants. ____ Canada took in very few refugees and this is still a source of embarrassment.

The number of refugees that different countries accept each year varies widely. For example, in 2020, countries like Germany, the United States, and Canada accepted tens of thousands of refugees, while other countries accepted only a few hundred or even fewer. The specific number accepted by each country is determined by various factors, including government policies, capacity for resettlement, and international agreements.
About 6/1,000 citizens of Canada are immigrants.
Yes, as long as they are properly vetted by the government. Also if the government can sustain them for at least a year, then by all means. Here in Canada we have accepted over 25000, mostly by the government some by private sponsor, after all, we are our brother's keeper.
