What in the hell are you going on about?
Have a few friends that work for IRCC and CBSA......and many of the decisions being rendered there and even up to the IRB are being fettered by the the current government to buy votes.
For those not familiar with the decision making process in these departments, approvals are far easier to write up than refusals. When management increase quotas required of the officer, approvals naturally increase, and the level of scrutiny per file decreases significantly. Complex files are suddenly processed with the same level of attention as straight-forward cases.
And this is not just at IRCC. The same thing happens at the IRB level. A IRB member was dismissed for not approving enough cases, not sure if they ever hired him back after making a stink about it....Uni prof at U of T I think.
Security and background checks? They're based on what the applicant says on their Schedule A. They literally take their word for it when it comes to their history. The bad guys that are dumb enough to be honest might get screened out, but beyond that, there isn't enough time and staff to conduct proper investigations on an applicant's background. Terrorists was a bit general, I apologize for that, but there are a lot of people that should not be here (criminals, pedofiles, rapists - fuk, surprising a lot of the last two), and it's you'd be surprised how costly and difficult it is to get them out once they're here.
The cost to keep these $hit-rats alive and comfortable for a year before their hearing is on us, the tax payers.
Dumb applicants have been known to confess to the reviewing officer that the only reason they made a claim was because their parent's can no longer afford to send them to school in Canada and pay for their MSP, but most are coached by immigration consultants and lawyers for a significant fee.
If you want to scratch the surface, stand outside of an IRCC building and see the line up of ref claimants every morning. Most are well dressed, with their iPhone Xs, LV, Coach or Gucci bags waiting to make a ref claim. Not all of them are simply trying get out of paying the International Fee for schooling....some claimants have minor crim, to serious crim to being RBGs (really bad guys).
One particular friend told me he worked in the Ref unit for 6 months, seeing maybe 3 families a day. He didn't render the ultimate decision on whether the applicants qualified for protection, but rather made recommendations to the IRB.
In those 6 months, he only had one family he actually believed - a white family from South Africa. He was of the opinion that the rest of his claimants lacked credibility, and it was demoralizing for him to watch the IRB approve applications with minimal evidence and weak reasons for their approvals. This officer is not white, so it's not a racial thing, but he thought the white family from SA would probably get fukked when the finally got to the IRB.
Maybe my friends are just jaded, but they're from different POEs and various inland offices, so it probably isn't a coincidence that there's a common theme when it comes to who's being allowed into the country. And it's not just ref claimants, we're talking all lines of business.
