Canada has always been a land of hope and opportunity for people from around the world . . . precisely because of our Judaeo-Christian heritage, which ensures nobody is above the law. Canada has a long tradition of religious freedom and accepts that citizens and permanent residents may practice any faith that does not violate Canadian law or harm others.

Immigration to Canada is not a right for any noncitizen born outside of Canada. It is a privilege to be received from a different country of origins into Canada. With this privilege comes responsibilities that must be taken seriously by both immigrant and Canadian agencies.

“According to the 2021 census, almost one in four people in Canada (23%) are immigrants—the largest percentage in Canada in 150 years and the highest among G7 countries.”

CHP Canada recognizes the government’s first responsibility is to citizen safety. With the understanding that immigration is a privilege, not a right, we would secure our borders. Refugees may not cross our borders without permission.

All refugees and future citizens must be thoroughly vetted and must declare their loyalty to Canada.

Economic Impacts of Immigration

Shortsighted governments have failed to consider the economic impact of unfettered immigration on the finite resources of our economy. We cannot both drain our resources today and still have them available for future needs. Read Economic Impacts of Immigration

Terrorism and Screening

The Canadian refugee and immigration system has failed to secure our nation from the threats posed by terrorism. CHP Canada would implement a comprehensive and complete overhaul of Canada’s current systems for the purpose of making Canada more secure from the threat of terrorism. Read Terrorism and Screening

Citizenship and Loyalty

The decision to choose to live in Canada must be accompanied by patriotism and loyalty to Canada and our democratic values and morals. Previously held traditions and legal systems incompatible with Canada’s culture and law must not be allowed to undermine Canada’s historical values of religious freedom and equality under the law. Read Citizenship and Loyalty

Refugees

In regard to legitimate refugees, CHP Canada understands that some of the high standards demanded of immigration applicants may be waived (with the exception of the loyalty oath) on humanitarian and compassionate grounds. Read Refugees

Population Stability

For many years CHP Canada has warned of the folly of our declining birthrate. Studies have confirmed that there are greater financial, economic and social benefits to be gained by shifting the priority in population management away from immigration and toward domestic growth.
