ignificant changes to immigration law/regulations went into effect on January 1, including Express Entry into Canada for young, skilled individuals whose abilities match what Canadian employers are looking for. There's more. Like Canada's policy toward accepting refugees from Syria. Is it sensible?

And....a Filipino couple who came to Canada under the Temporary Worker Program and are being deported because residency application is being denied (they were married while here and have a child born in Canada), is pleading with Ottawa to let them stay. Should they be permitted to stay?

Guest: Martin Collacott. Fmr. Canadian Ambassador to Syria and Lebanon. Spokesman for the Centre for Immigration Policy Reform.

Do you agree with new immigration rules and should Filipino couple be permitted to stay?
