This conversation was about economic benefits of immigrants to the country, not about procedural acceptance or not. If you want to voice your opinion about immigration being good or bad for these 3 countries, that would be a proper answer to my post.Australia, you say?

There are no refugees coming to Australia because they are immeadiately sent back or put in jail.
If boat refugees would arrive to the US or Canada they would do exactly the same.
Once again, the issue of my complete agreement or disliking of Canadian immigration policy is not in question here, neither anyone asked me about my opinion on it. I can also accept your opinion or suggestions about my government immigration policy. The argument at hand was if immigrants are beneficial or not.So if you are telling what Europeans should do, you're a bloody hypocrit.
There was only one instance of people on boat reaching Canada from Sri Lanka, that I remember, they were all processed and accepted I believe. Otherwise there are many individual case of people coming to Canada to claim asylum. They are all processed, rather lengthy process takes few years, with many people not being accepted and deported. Similar to processes in many European countries. Process is generally speaking fine. The problem Europe's facing is extraordinary volume of refugees, which can't be processed in normal way or even given temporary accommodation. The problem is not illegal refugee or two, the problem is the huge volume that broke the system. And this needs to be addressed and solution found. What would you do?
