A Vancouver Sun article published this year shows that even after one year after resettlement, Syrian refugees in Canada are not really granting any benefits for the country as a whole. Each Syrian family receives on average $50,000 in tax payer money and the vast majority of refugees are conversational in neither French nor English. This leads to high unemployment and lack of economic growth among the refugee group in Canada. This corroborates with my previous post saying that if the West focused more on putting these refugees in nearby Arab-speaking nations instead of Western nations, they will be able to communicate better (in Arabic) and it would be less costly to care for them.
