Canada provides more assistance to people seeking asylum.

Brampton, Ontario

The world is seeing unprecedented levels of displacement, and like many other nations, Canada is seeing an increase in asylum claims.

This has put a great deal of strain on Canada’s shelter systems, and as winter draws near, the need becomes more pressing. All levels of government must collaborate to address these issues and find solutions. Today, the Region of Peel will receive $7 million from the Government of Canada for the establishment of a new reception center. This initiative will provide more shelter as well as more streamlined services and supports for asylum seekers.

The facility will function as a temporary shelter as well as a reception area, and it will be run in conjunction with community organizations that have the expertise, resources, and ability to assist this demographic.

The Government of Canada is dedicated to collaborating with other governmental levels to find solutions to meet the needs of asylum seekers.
