Domestic Violence Against Immigrant And Refugee Women

The amount of immigrants being homeless is growing at a high risk pace. Immigrants are more vulnerable to become homeless because they lack to obtain affordable housing. In Canada housing cost are rising in the owned and rental sectors. Meaning immigrants arriving at Canada can’t afford the high cost of housing. They are forced to migrate to other cities that have low housing cost to be able to afford housing, or live in adequate housing. The majority of immigrants except for business class immigrants arrive with sufficient income to be able to rent or buy a house. Refugees, may use shelters as a temporary, it is more difficult if they don’t have a sponsor to support them. Case studies in Canada show immigrants live in insecure housing where apartments or houses are run-down, dirty, worn out, as a consequence of

The Government of Canada preaches about being a free nation for equality for all yet they continue to ignore the 1200-4000 missing and/or murder Indigenous women in the past 30 years. These women are trapped in a cycle of poverty, abuse and fear and this will only continue to get worse.

Canada is well known for its size. It has the same size as China, yet it has about thirty times as less people. Inviting the refugees to Canada helps increase the country’s population and fill the empty space in the northern territories and the maritime provinces. Furthermore, the elderly population has been increasing dramatically in Canada, which means more retirements have been occurring. Thus, refugees will also help to fill empty workplaces, as Daniel Tencer states “Atlantic Canada has been facing low population growth and an aging workforce for years, and some business leaders there are pushing to make sure the region

“An immigrant who can bring with him work for twelve people is to be welcomed with open arms even in a industrial colossus like the United States - welcomed anywhere it would seem but in Canada...Not only have the refugees brought work, but they have brought new customers”, (Document, 9).

The truth is exactly the opposite. Refugees seeking protection in Canada are not threats to security, but are in fact, they are seeking security and protection from threats to their own lives. Refugees all go through a heavy front-end security screening that is done by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service upon their arrival in Canada. It is also much more difficult to enter Canada as a refugee. The refugee process involves security checks, fingerprinting and interviews. Therefore, it is not likely that a person intending to commit crime would choose to go through detailed examinations. The Immigration and Refugee Protection Act refuses refugees if they are found to be inadmissible on the basis of security, serious criminal behavior or human rights violations (Government Of Canada, 2016). It is important to realize that Canada takes the matter of security and protecting our citizens very seriously and as citizens themselves they want to be sure that they are keeping the country they live in very

As we all know, Canada is an immigrant country. This beautify country attract more and more people who are longing for good future. In 2011, the population of foreign-born in Canada is about 6.7 million. No matter where we are from and what background we have, from the moment we land in Canada as immigrants, there are some problems we need to face to. The commonest three problems are learning a new language, adjusting to a new life-style, and finding a suitable job.

In the article “Domestic violence against indigenous women is everybody’s problem” domestic violence is depicted as a serious social problem that involves “unspeakable acts of violence” that leaves victims experiencing fear and despair (Taylor 2014). More specifically, the social construction of domestic violence will be discussed with an emphasis on Aboriginal women and a typology of intimate partner violence. The social construction of domestic violence has serious implications for victims of domestic abuse because there is a failure to address the processes that perpetuate the violence. Instead, domestic violence is addressed through the illusion of social support. What is evident is that domestic violence is a social problem that requires comprehensive services, particularly for indigenous women, to address the complexity of the interaction between the individual’s social location and the causes that lead to the violence.

Immigration is of great economic and social benefit to Canada. It’s an important role in developing our economy, and it shapes the nation into a multicultural nation. Immigration is a significant role in building our economy, providing growth in the labor force, making a strong economy, and becoming a multicultural nation.

Immigrants today now have the privilege of entering and residing in Canada but along with this privilege, there are also barriers that impede their integration and deprive them of equal opportunity in the society. The undervaluing of foreign education and credentials has emerged over the years as a huge obstacle faced by recent immigrants who seek employment in the areas that they have been trained, and worked in for decades in their respective home countries. For years, newcomers in Canada have been denied inclusion into the Canadian labour market simply because of policies that were

Immigration has grown to become a big aspect in today’s society in Canada. Most cities have welcomed immigration, although mainly portrayed in bigger cities. Immigration in Canada has come with its share of pros as well as its share of cons. The pros with the immigration in Canada starts off with the racial blending of persons in the community, giving future generations a more positive outlook towards equality for all races because they grow up in a world that, for them, hasn’t seen racial and cultural inequality. In my opinion, in a world where children aren’t aware of the cultural and racial inequalities that had been put forth in the generations before them is an enormous strength to immigration for the fact that every person has a right to life and liberty and to have those ideas implanted in the generations to come is detrimental to a working society. Cons found in immigration in Canada fall in employment. The more people immigrate to Canada, the more jobs are being filled leaving others without any. The Immigration Refugee Board is able to offer a wide

There needs to be reform not only the issue of illegal immigration but also on legal immigration and refugee and asylum policies; the three main reforms that I will cover in this paper. Current immigrant policy allows for around 1 million immigrants allowed into this country every year. Although this may seem like a low number compared to the current population of nearly 300 million people who currently live in the unites states the

Their new arrival helped defend and build their country’s way of life ("The government of Canada," n.d.) Immigration has been a major influence on the development of their society and plays a huge role in their economy. Their economy job market is broken into three different categories which include service, natural resources and manufacturing.

Canada’s immigration policy has got fairer from the middle of the century on to the end of the century. At the start of the century, Canada’s immigration policy, Canada’s immigration policy wasn’t fair but as the century comes to an end, Canada’s immigration policy became entirely different. There were a lot of racism in the first half of the century but most of this racism in the immigration policy disappeared from 1967 and on. As the years go by, Canada’s immigration policy gets a lot reasonable.

There are various issues that revolve around Canadian politics. These issues can include various subjects, such as economics, multiculturalism, health care, immigration, and foreign policy. An important issue in Canada that is discussed in this essay is Canada’s constant changes to its immigration policy in order to improve its economic goals and the labour market. These issues are changing by different policies that the Canadian government are putting into place, which creates a more strict system in choosing who can immigrate into the country. Three articles that thoroughly analyze Canada’s immigration policy in order to implement these changes are the following. The first article is named: “New Directions in Immigration Policy: Canada’s

In the late 19 century, early 20th century Refugees from Russia, especially Jews, Mennonites and Doukhobors, settled in Canada. The world had different opinions on this matter, but most of the world took it as an advantage. The world took it as an advantage because the refugees can help and boost the economy for the better. (Tess Fuller 1) The refugees come from different places all around the world meaning that they come from different work environments. People from different countries know different jobs better so that would help our economy because instead of having people working in one type of job we would have different people from different countries be able to come and help us with the jobs that we are not so strong at doing. Refugees can help with jobs like plumbers, construction workers, and accountants, while we are good at jobs like doctors, social workers, and teachers. By letting the refugees come into our country it would give more of a diversity to the jobs we are working in right now. It would help benefit the world because there are a lot of jobs on high demand and by letting them come into our country they can help us fill those jobs up.
