Quebec Premier François Legault has expressed concerns about the province’s capacity to accommodate a growing number of asylum seekers, especially following vocal criticism from the Haitian community. Amid surging border arrivals and resource constraints, Legault’s remarks have sparked debate over immigration policy and the practical challenges Quebec faces in integrating new arrivals. The controversy has intensified discussions between community stakeholders and political leaders about the province’s readiness for increased migration.
Legault told reporters Thursday in Sherrington, Que., that the sheer numbers are stretching Quebec's social security net to the limit.
MONTREAL - Premier François Legault says Quebec doesn't have the capacity to take in more immigrants amid a surge in the number of asylum seekers arriving at the province's border with the United States.
