Listen "Asylum in Canada explained"
Episode Synopsis
"Canada doesn't have a refugee crisis. Canada has a crisis of will in terms of what we want to do," says refugee and immigration lawyer Zool Suleman about the influx of people crossing the American border to seek asylum in Canada.

Today on Front Burner, we shed light on a confusing system and an issue that's often clouded by rhetoric.
