Canadians want illegal immigrants deported: poll
A majority of Canadians believe immigrants who are in the country illegally or after their visas expire should be deported, even if they have family ties in the country, a newly released government poll shows.魚拓
過半数のカナダ人は、その移民が、カナダに家族がいる場合でも、不法移民であれば、退去すべきである、と考えているということです。
“Half say that they feel the same way about immigrants who have studied in Canada and have the potential to contribute to this country but who are now here illegally because their visas have run out,” said the poll summary. As well, a slight majority said immigrants who did not go through the proper application process should be deported despite the existence of family members already in the country.
例えば、カナダの学生であった場合で、この国に貢献される可能性があっても、ビザがきれれば不法であり、退去すべきで、たとえ、カナダに家族との結びつきがあっても、合法な手続きを踏まなかったひとは、退去すべきである、と。
Prof. Peter Showler, director of the Refugee Forum at the University of Ottawa, said it is a “very high Canadian value” to oppose queue-jumping by anyone in the country, including immigrants.
“We are a very civil society and we like the idea that people should play by the rules, and we don’t like it when there are rule-breakers and I think that has been a fairly consistent view,” said Showler. However, he added that Canadians are very “schizophrenic” on the issue and once personal details about an immigrant, who is about to be deported, become public through the media, they often become extremely supportive
我々は市民社会であり、規則にしたがって行動し、規則を破る者は好まない、ということはわれわれの一貫した考えである。しかし、カナダ人はこの件に関して分裂症的であり、退去しなくてはいけない移民の詳しい事情を、メディアなどで知らされると、彼等を支持する場合も多い、と。
n the poll, Canadians identified both the positive and negative aspects of immigration. The pro-immigration aspects were identified as giving a boost to the workforce by bringing in more labourers and highly skilled people while increasing cultural diversity.
“Negative aspects identified include the perception that there is a lack of integration in that immigrants are imposing their culture instead of adapting to ours, the desire of immigrants to have Canada accommodate them, the impact that immigration has on Canadian culture and the notion that immigrants groups tend to stay together and not mix with the rest of society,” said the poll report.
移民のいい面としては、労働力や高い技術者などをよびこみ、また、同時に様々な文化をもたらすことであるが、よくない面として、彼等が社会になじまず、かえって自分たちの文化をこちらに押し付けることなど、カナダ文化に与える影響で、また、移民たちは自分たちでかたまって生活するくせがあり、周囲の人々とうちとけない、ところである、という。
あと面白い結果として、不法移民の予防として、
In fact, 80 per cent of the respondents predicted by the year 2010 that every adult will have at least one biometric ID on file somewhere to verify their identity. Overall, just over half of Canadians said that there are about the right number of immigrants coming to Canada while 27 per cent said there were too many.
2010年までには、自分たちの身分を証明する生体認証を成人はもつようになるだろう、と予想している。また、移民の数に関して現状で適切という人が半数だが、２７％の人は多すぎる、と感じているという。
