Can anyone apply for immigration to Canada as a refugee?
Not everyone can apply for immigration as a refugee. Refugees and people needing protection are those in or outside Canada who fear returning to their home country. In keeping with its humanitarian tradition and international obligations, Canada provides protection to thousands of people every year.
Canada offers refugee protection to people in Canada who fear of persecution or who may be at risk of torture or cruel and unusual treatment or punishment, and are unwilling or unable to return to their home country.
Groups and individuals can sponsor refugees from abroad who qualify to come to Canada.

What is the easiest way to immigrate to Canada from Mainland China?
Perspective Immigrants to Canada must apply from outside of Canada, to Immigration Canada. The process is about two years long before you get a Permanent Resident permit, then you can come to Canada to find work. Take a look at the main Canadian Government web site, by doing a Google search and then look for the Immigration information sub page. Immigrants are judged based on their education, work history and job skills, as well as their langauge ability in either English or French, and their ability to "fit in to Canadian society". A medical exam and blood tests, plus a chest x-ray are all required, as are a criminal record search in your home country, and a credit check of your past banking record. Obviously, a criminal record, a bankruptcy or having a Aids/Hiv illness will rule you out.
Can you sponsor your spouse to come to Canada?
Yes, if you are a Canadian Citizen or Permanent Resident. Even if there is no income requirement for you to sponsor your partner/spouse, you shouldn't be on public assistance, or welfare, for other reasons than disability.
Your partner should also be admisible under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA).
The person with the criminal record can get married to the American citizen, BUT they will NOT be granted residence in the USA. The same applies to Americans who have a criminal record, they are BARRED from entering Canada. We don't like to swap criminals.
The only alternative, and it takes a while, is to apply for a PARDON from the Canadian Government, if the conviction took place more than FIVE years ago.
The application takes about 6 months to be approved and they will do a VERY deep check on the person's life and honesty, before it is granted. The application requires a cash fee, and a finger print set done by the RCMP.

What country or regions did the majority of immigrants come from in the late 1800s?
This question assumes the country of immigration, but does not state it. There were massive human migrations all around the world in the late 1800s from places in the Old World to places in the New World (such as immigration to US and Canada and to Latin America to a lesser extent), migration within the Old World (such as Europeans moving to African and Asian colonies, Africans and Asians fleeing from territory under one colonizer to territory under a different colonizer, and Asians seeking better work opportunities in other Asian or colonized countries like Australia), and migration within the New World (such as Latin Americans moving to Anglo-America for job opportunities and political freedoms).
If the question meant to ask specifically about immigration to the United States in the late 1800s, please see the Related Question below.
If you have a temporary South African passport do you need a visa to enter Israel?
It is recommended that the passports of all travelers to South Africa contain at least two completely blank (unstamped) visa pages each time entry is sought. These pages are in addition to the endorsement/amendment pages (as many as four) at the back of the passport. While South African statutes require only one completely blank visa page, this rule has been applied inconsistently by South African immigration officials. In addition, any trip to a neighboring country would necessitate another blank page upon return. Travelers lacking adequate blank pages in the passport may be refused entry into South Africa, fined, and returned to their point of origin at the traveler's expense. Visitors to South Africa for tourism or those in transit do not require visas for stays of up to 90 days. In the event a traveler overstays that period without a permit issued by the South African Department of Home Affairs, he or she may be subject to a fine of up to 3,000 rand (approximately $300).

Do Americans need visas to visit France?
A US passport will do.
However, France is a part of the Schengen territories. Basically this means you can stay in France for up to 90 days on a normal short stay visa (given upon entry to the country). You must then be out of France at least 90 days before you are able to return again for a visit.
If you wish to stay longer you will have to apply for a different kind of visa.
That is based on my personal experience with travel back and forth to France. It would behoove you to read the article listed in related links.

Can your boyfriend come back to the United States legally if he was deported?
It depends on why he was deported. If he was deported as a result of a criminal conviction, then he may not be eligable to re-enter the U.S. If he has no criminal record, he may have to wait 5 years before he can legally enter the U.S. as a nonimmigrant (student, vistior). If he makes an application for a immigrant visa (green card) and he has no criminal history, he might be able to enter the U.S. by filing for a waiver of the previous deportation.
