Canada has taken the lead in refugee settlement for the first time in 72 years, according to new data compiled by a researcher at the University of Calgary, raising questions about the country’s role in navigating a growing Muslim refugee crisis.
The Star (h/t MarvinW) Data compiled from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), as well as other governments worldwide, shows that Canada resettled just under 30,000 refugees in 2018 — slightly exceeding the number of those resettled by countries in the European Union, and a few thousand more than those resettled by the United States, putting Canada in a historic lead.
Canada’s position at the lead of Muslim refugee resettlement in large part has to do with the drastic decline in the U.S.’s resettlement of refugees in the last year.
“They’ve gone from resettling 65 to 70 per cent of the world’s resettled refugees to only 24 per cent,” Falconer said of the U.S., comparing the dramatic shift in numbers from 2016 to 2018. He added while some countries in the European Union, including Germany and the United Kingdom, have encouraged the resettlement of refugees, others, like Denmark and Hungary, have chosen to reduce their numbers or eliminate resettlement programs entirely.
“The pie has shrunk,” Falconer said of refugee resettlement efforts. “Canada is taking more of the pie.”
Pew Research The number of refugees resettled in the United States decreased more than in any other country in 2017, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of new data from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). This represents the first time since the adoption of the 1980 U.S. Refugee Act that the U.S. resettled fewer refugees than the rest of the world.
The U.S. has historically led the world in refugee resettlement. Since 1980, the U.S. has taken in 3 million of the more than 4 million refugees resettled worldwide. But in 2017, the U.S. resettled 33,000 refugees, the country’s lowest total since the years following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and a steep drop from 2016, when it resettled about 97,000.
Ahmed Hussen, a Somali Muslim, is Canada’s Minister of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship and is proud that Canada played a leading role in the drafting of the United Nations Global Migration Compact which makes migration a “human right” and all but eliminates a nation’s borders and its ability to decide for itself which refugees and migrants it will accept.
Macleans With input from domestic NGOs, Canada was one of the first countries to offer concrete suggestions in the early days of the consultations around issues that the Compact should highlight and address, from the benefits of refugees’ economic inclusion, to the imperative of increasing political and financial support for frontline hosting countries.
But the politicization of the debate around some 10,000 asylum-seekers who crossed the border illegally in Quebec this year is a stark reminder that no society is immune to populist rhetoric.
The Compact urges the private sector to support the entrepreneurial skills of refugees (even though few have any) with micro-credit loans and mentorship, as looking at refugees as economic agents and contributing neighbors, and not passive recipients of aid (which most them will be for life as they are in Europe).
While 1.4 million (mostly Muslim) refugees have been recognized by the UN as in need of resettlement, countries have offered only some 70,000 spaces this year—a stark decrease compared to last year. However, Canada continues to be a leader in offering this solution: 10,000 refugees will be admitted in 2018 through Immigration, Refugees, Citizenship Canada (IRCC), and another 20,000 will be welcomed through Canadian private sponsors from coast to coast.

White Christians are HATED.
White South African Christians, especially farmers and their families are at Stage 6 for GENOCIDE. Stage 7 is EXTERMINATION.
White South African Christians have BEGGED British and European leaders to allow them to escape into their nations. Our CRUEL, ruthless, GOD HATER leaders REFUSED. They only want Muslims.
God help our people.
You must realize that the reason most refugees are Sunni Muslims is because most countries, Canada included, get their refugees through the UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees), which is totally anit-Christian. The President of our refugee rescue group, went to Thailand to help a Christian Pakistani family that had been threatened with death and forced to flee for their lives, from their home in Pakistan. He discovered that virtually every Christian family has been refused genuine refugee status, but every Muslim family has been received with open arms. The U.N. is firmly Pro-Muslim and anti- non Muslim. So, as a result, every country that goes through the U.N. will receive only Muslims. The way to overcome that problem, is to choose your own family, (as we did), then go through your country’s High Commissioner for Refugees. If you want to know how to do that, let me know.
the sinister clown drug dealer pennywise turdo now sells drugs to our children, what next, the legalisation of paedophilia ?
As far as maniac man-child Justin Trudanger is concerned, the entire country of Canada is henceforth a massive refugee camp; all pretenders, predators and two-bit hustlers welcome. And if you disagree with him you are a racist homophobic bla bla bla.
JT lives in some sort of a human rights fairy tale fantasy world where money grows on trees. Apparently his mom smoked lots of pot while pregnant with him. Enough said.
Here’s a good read that sums it up:
“GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau doesn’t understand the nature of evil”
https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/trudeau-doesnt-understand-the-nature-of-evil
Quran (3:56) – “As to those who reject faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help.”
All children are born with a God given conscience to know good from evil.
Trudeau does UNDERSTAND the nature of evil. GOD HATER Trudeau EMBRACES EVIL.
Pretend you were trying to destroy a country, how would you do it? One the list, ruin the industries that bring in capital from around the world. Check, Canada’s oil exports are severely limited, no new pipelines, so rail system is straining and costing farmers billions in delayed grain exports. Yes, twofer oil and agriculture are getting screwed by the p.m.
The next on the list, immigrants who have limited to no skills, muslims from the middle-east fit this perfectly, check. It can be added the majority won’t get work, so force others to pay for the newcomers through taxes, check. Let’s not forget the apartment/housing shortages and increased prices, thanks p.m, check. How soon will Canada’s hospitals be shutdown by improperly screened drug resistant diseased muslims?
Yes, things are looking dark for Canada, even without muslims having prayer rooms at nuclear power plants. Check, a non-syfy disaster movie is coming.
Welcome to hunger games, the Canadian edition, eh.
Islam/Muslim loving Trudeau has to be kicked out of office. Getting the SOB and his gang of affirmative action incompetents removed from power has to be done now; waiting for an uncertain federal election result to oust the traitors is the wrong way, imao. The anti-Canadian Turd needs to go PRONTO, and by whatever means necessary to achieve that. Get him out . . . NOW!
This will not end well for Canada or America. America has a powerful military, but weak/liberal leaders. The liberals will help in the destruction of America as well as in Canada. No one will stop the onslaught. It is happening and the future of both countries people who have been here for generations will end in submission or death to Islam. You may say I am nuts. But, look what has happened with Afghanistan. 17 years and no winning. You go to war to win or do not go at all.
It is obvious Norman Bates is betraying Canadians and endangering Americans from the North. There will be war one day on this continent.
Norman Bates has done irreparable damage for the West to win. When the SHTF Norman Bates must be hanged.
Canada is only a country because the US allows it. Once Canada becomes a Muslim majority and Sharia law takes over the Countries laws the US will invade after a terror attack by a Canadian Muslim and put Canada back to the dark ages.
You’re blowing BS. Come and get us — if you can!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Canada is America’s Asshat.
Turdhole works for Soros and his job is to destroy Canada. Canadians are too busy drinking beer and watching the Leafs to care that their children are being raped and murdered by these immigrant animals.
HEY!!!
We’re not ALL Leaf fans…!! LOL
We had better vote this bastard Trudeau out along with his liberal government in 2019 if we are to survive as the Canada we love so much.
Too late for voting , and it may be too late for the other way.
What happened to Refugee Assistance, or Refugee Relief?
The outcome is craftily predetermined by the title Refugee Resettlement.
When conditions improve in the source country refugees should return.
The majority of real Canadians do not want this.
We didn’t ask for this, we were told to accept it.
God help us……I know war is coming.
I did not vote for Trudeau….I couldn’t live with myself if I did.
I didn’t vote for this moron either, nor did I vote for his moron father. I am with you we are heading for a war, and I wish it would guarantee that Junior and his inept government were the first ones to be taken out. Then maybe we could raise the Canadian flag and be proud of Canada once more. I am almost 70 and have never been so embarrassed of Canada and what it has become.
just when Canada is set to lead the world in a bright future plenty of natural resources fresh water, timber to supply a new world energy untapped , and they pick muslims to share it with … I don’t believe it !
Now we’re going to have to but a barrier along our northern border as well! Thanks Trudeau!
Canada is bringing in mainly Muslum immigrants, who hate “infidels” (Canadians), therefore will hate Canada, attacking its citizens, causing crime. They will hate Canada like they hate the US, they are only there to freeload. Trudeau is proud of that. However, he has himself convinced these barbarians are contributing something beneficial.
This statistic is nothing to be proud of.
This Somalian immigration official is the fox guarding the henhouse. Actually, he is not guarding it at all, welcoming all the foxes in. Soon there will be no more hens, they will head south. This is what we have on our northern border.
Wall # 2.
Canadian brain freeze might inhibit these “refugees” from formulating and executing their terror plots.
It hasn’t in the past.
We should thank Canada for helping to make our Northern border worse than our Southern border. If anyone thinks that we won’t get invaders from Canada – they had their heads in the sand for the last 10+ years regarding islam and its various forms of jihad. One form is to invade – hijrah – jihad by emigration – to increase their numbers so violent and civilizational jihads increase and work side by side.
We Canadians will soon(if not already) really regret this stupidity. But what do you expect from bleeding heart Liberals especially since the Immigration minister is from Somalia, FFS! We will end up a third world shithole like the countries of origin of these migrants.
O Canada, Brace Ourselves.
I agree. I used to live in edmonton for awhile in a little area nicknamed little somalia. I know from experience just how useless and savage somalis are. We should not have one in charge of our countries immigration and we definetly should not be importing thousands of them. The ones we have here are useless enough
trudeau: “The compassionate society is back!” This retarded, wealthy, modern day Bertie Wooster actually seems to think if he drags Africa and the Mid. East into Canada he will go down as a great, compassionate, philanthropic statesman.
In fact, he will be known with hatred as the man who ruined this country by dragging into it the very worst the world has to offer–people who have absolutely no intention of assimilating, and who hate us virulently.
you’re wrong…he is doing it solely for the money…
I think I’m right, money doesn’t mean so much to trudeau, since he has plenty, and his slapping his stupid carbon tax on us and upping many other taxes is just to pay for his favoured new ‘Canadians’.
No, I’m convinced he sees himself as a ‘great statesman’.
His father was an evil bastard, but at least he had a few brains….
Trudeau is a classic Monarch mind control slave. Much like the Disney stars who go off the rails around 16 or so, JT has shown no capacity for independent thought. He has a handler and is given his marching orders by Soros and his ilk. Money is not the issue for JT. Like the classic Manchurian Candidate, he does what he’s told and that’s that. When they’re done with him, he’ll be put out with the trash like they always do.
With all due respect, it’s not about the money with traitor Trudeau. Like his idol, the vile Kraut Frau Merkel, the SOB is loading Canada up with Third-World rejects for ideological reasons. It’s all about creating a border-less NWO without individual, sovereign nations, and a global population of mongrels instead of different ethnic and racial groups proudly celebrating their unique cultures. IOW, one great big mess of humanity indistinguishable one from the other, with self-styled ‘elites” like Turd Trudeau, and Euro Trash Merkel, Macron, May, a.o. in charge of it all.
It all sounds unbelievable, but the nightmare transformation of our world by nasty, heartless social engineers really is taking place. They won’t succeed, of course, because pushback is gaining momentum ( Trump, Salvini, Orban, and others ), but it won’t stop the lunatics from continuing their destructive efforts. They have to be FORCED to cease and desist!
