Liberals Propose Sending 4,600 asylum seekers to NB without financial support!

🛑 Breaking News - Liberals Propose Sending 4,600 asylum seekers to NB without financial support! 🛑

Yesterday, provincial officials were invited to a conference call in which it was shared by federal officials in Ottawa that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Liberal government is considering a plan to send 4,600 asylum seekers to New Brunswick without providing any federal financial assistance. This is an increase of more than 10 times our current level of asylum seekers.

New Brunswick is a welcoming province that embraces immigration. It's been key to our economic success as a province. But this would stretch our healthcare and education systems far beyond what they can handle. And we do not have enough housing to make sure both newcomers and people currently living in NB have a roof over their heads.

We are calling on the Liberal government to drop this plan, and instead, deal with the backlog of asylum claims that their failed policies have created.
