Refugee resettlement agencies brace for Trudeau government's Syrian surge
At 25,000 people, 'this will be the largest movement of refugees in Canadian history,' expert says

Refugee resettlement agencies across Canada are working overtime to develop plans for integrating an unprecedented surge of refugees, without knowing how soon they'll arrive or whether their agencies' budgets will increase to meet the costs.
"If the government commits to this tight time frame — a matter of weeks — this will be the largest movement of refugees in Canadian history," says Chris Friesen, head of the Immigrant Services Society of British Columbia.
New Immigration Minister John McCallum meets Tuesday with a cabinet subcommittee to put flesh on the bones of a plan crafted by officials in multiple government departments.
"The committee's function is to make this work, which involves getting this moving very, very fast and very competently," McCallum said Monday. He expects to offer more details within a week.
The committee will be run by Health Minister Jane Philpott and includes the ministers of defence, foreign affairs, Canadian heritage, public safety and international development. The minister of democratic institutions, Maryam Monsef, is also on the committee. She was herself a refugee from Afghanistan.
"We'll have a good, solid, informed discussion on how to move this priority forward," Treasury Board President Scott Brison, another member of the cabinet committee, told CBC Radio's Ottawa Morning Tuesday.
Temporary permits first
The UN's High Commissioner for Refugees says his agency will be helping the Liberal government identify refugees for resettlement — particularly from Lebanon and Jordan — and facilitating their move to Canada.
Antonio Guterres says Syrians coming to Canada will initially receive a temporary residence permit, to be replaced by permanent status after processing in Canada. They will be eligible to apply for citizenship in four years.
The federal Immigration department could not immediately confirm the details in Guterres's statement.
Guterres welcomed Canada's commitment to resettling 25,000 Syrians by the end of the year, calling it a huge gesture of solidarity that other countries should follow.
But the burden of welcoming Syrian refugees falls to agencies at an already busy time of year.

"We had hoped we would have more details," Claudette Legault, the director of programs and services for the Immigrant Services Association of Nova Scotia, told CBC News.
Groups involved in housing and health are meeting to anticipate accommodation demands and medical needs. Some refugees of the war may suffer post traumatic stress, while others have not had access to primary health care in five years.
A group of family doctors in Toronto is expanding their clinics, expecting Syrians, both those sponsored by government and the increased numbers from private sponsors.
Initially, the refugees may be housed temporarily on military bases in Canada, but within weeks they'll need more permanent housing.
And there is a scarcity of affordable housing in many cities such as Vancouver, and Toronto, which are looking at accepting three times as many government sponsored refugees than planned for this year.
"We're not picky. We'll take anything and everything at this point — rooms in people's homes, basement suites, apartment suites." - Chris Friesen, Immigrant Services Society of B.C.
Refugees receive the equivalent of social assistance for the first year from the government. In Vancouver, for example, for a family of four, that works out to about $1,350 a month for food, shelter and transport, making finding an apartment a daunting prospect.
"Housing is the No. 1 priority," says Friesen, calling on Canadians to think about what they might contribute.
"We're not picky. We'll take anything and everything at this point — rooms in people's homes, basement suites, apartment suites," he added.
At this point it's unclear where the refugees may end up, but if they are distributed across the country, as current refugees are, even smaller cities like Prince Albert, Sask., Medicine Hat, Alta., or Victoriaville, Que., may be each asked to take more than 200 new refugees — four times the number of initial targets for 2015.
Municipalities and provincial departments will need to co-ordinate things like education. Up to 35 per cent of the Syrian refugees will be children and young people under 18. They'll need to join schools in mid-year, often without English skills.

加拿大先别和美国三亿人口比，就和德国的八千万人口都没法比。加拿大虽地大但真正适合人居住的没多少地方，而移民难民愿意居住的地方就那么几处，25000叙利亚难民进入这几处地方就不少了，十多年前 landing 时在多伦多人口混合比例乱的都不知是在哪个国家。加拿大再被这些没头脑的政客搞得以后美加边界要向美墨边界看齐了。我不反对接受难民，但政客们要根据自己国情和自身能力来做，国家利益永远第一位的。中国过去也没少援外，最终结果又如何呢。政客们上台后首要任务是先把自己国家经济搞好，别光做些最容易的面子工程，这样下去加拿大将来将从接受难民到输出难民了。
