Flaws in the System: Interview with Canadian Immigration Lawyer Steven Meurrens

All That Jas Podcast with Calgary member of Parliament Jasraj Singh Hallan

There are longstanding experiences and accusations of system racism and bias in Canada’s Immigration System.

Is it true the triage system for Indian applicants is more strict than the triage system for Chinese applicants?

Marriage fraud – how can we stop that from happening?

And how on earth do we alleviate the current backlog of applications?

Canada’s Immigration System is truly a mystery not readily explained. What we do know is what has been gleaned from Access to Information Requests. Canadian Immigration Lawyer Steven Meurrens makes those requests constantly and knows as well (or better) than anyone how it works and how it doesn’t.
