Hoping to reduce crime, Canada and US agree to share information on bogus refugee claims…

….and on other immigration fraud.

OTTAWA — Canada is tightening the screws in its evaluation of immigration and refugee applications, setting up a new information-sharing system with the United States.

Under proposed regulations published Saturday, Canadian and U.S. authorities will share the biographical information of immigration, refugee, work permit and visa applicants with each other by November.

Canadian officials say the biggest benefit will be “an increase in the number of identified and prevented ineligible refugee claimants, and a decrease in the volume of crime as a greater number of known criminals who would have otherwise gained access to Canada would be denied entry.”

As I have mentioned on previous occasions, at least the media in Canada is willing to report on topics like this one!  I would like to know if anyone sees this story published on the US side of the border!
