Ideally around 700Mhz and above with at least 256MB of memory is recommended for desktops and around 1GHz and at least 256MB for laptops/notebooks/netbooks.

It's worth noting however that support isn't guaranteed. Nor will potential power of a card reflect its performance under AROS. Sound wise there are * HDaudio support for onboard intel and AMD netbooks, ultrabooks, notebooks and motherboards (2005 to 2020) * some AC97 codec support for very old motherboards and laptops (ie pre 2004) * PCI and some PCI-E C-Media CMI8738 for desktop plugin cards * PCI Creative Soundblaster EMU10K1 cards [http://amigaworld.net/modules/news/article.php?storyid=2512 SBLive] * PCI semi professional some early VIA Envy24 desktop sound cards * PCI Sound Blaster 128 aka SB16 Supported [http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Aros/Platforms/x86_Network_support network] which could be desktop, laptop, etc * PCI-E Realtek rtl8169 1GbE which also includes the rtl8111 and rtl8110 (2011 to 2025) * PCI Realtek rtl8139 and includes rtl8101 and rtl8100 (2005 to 2009) * PCI intel e1000 (2006 to 2009) * PCI intel pro100 (2002 to 2005) * Broadcom 44xx 10/100 integrated in laptops around 2005 * VIA 10/100 (1999 to 2002) * 3com Etherlink 10/100 * Realtek rtl8029 10mbit Wireless wifi * atheros 5000 wireless *realtek 8187 usb It is very hard to recommend a completely supported motherboard because as soon as newer motherboards arrive so their features change subtly, often introducing non supported parts like ethernet and audio. It is a moving target. * mini-itx motherboard will only get you 1 pci or pci-e slot * micro mATX or uATX will have more, typically 2 pci-e or pci slots which helps if any onboard features are not supported. * full atx will have more slots available '''N.B''' It is frustrating when a piece of hardware is not supported. Hardware documentation can run to over 100 pages and a lot of hardware do not have any public documentation anyway. Chips from different manufacturers for sound, graphics, SATA, etc. vary just as much, unless they follow a standard such as [https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Supported-codecs HDAudio codecs], AHCI etc. Coding drivers is a far cry from Hello World programs or even a port of existing software. If you do actually want to try then get a hold of documentation on the relevant hardware and start there. Alternatively you could try to find some '''BSD''', MIT or MPL licence drivers as a point of reference. Please , do not think you can just adapt strings in a driver for different strings, it does not work that way. You will '''need''' to start from scratch for each new bit of hardware. Device driver programming require '''embedded''' skills, like manipulation of bits within registers, good debugging skills, dealing with interrupts, lots of patience, etc. The following specific chipsets and drivers are also available - use Tools/PCITool to confirm Vendor and Product IDs - Please let us know any mistakes or any information to be added, to this General Chat list on [https://arosworld.org/ AROS World] : Brief Timeline : 2000-12-06 HIDD first mouse.hidd completed ([http://msaros.blogspot.com/ Michal Schulz]) : 2001-03-31 BOOT first boot from floppy disk with IDE device : 2001-10-30 BOOT first cd bootable version : 2002-01-27 HIDD first pci.hidd added (Michal Schulz) : 2002-04-13 BOOT software HDToolBox added () : 2003-04-03 HIDD vesa2.hidd graphic modes added () : 2004-03-08 HIDD new pci and ata (pata) devices worked on (Michal Schulz) : 2004-03-17 HIDD nVidia 2D driver appears (Michal Schulz) : 2005-01-05 AHI AHI v6 audio system ported (Martin Blom) : 2005-01-06 AHI SBLive SoundBlaster Live driver ported (Georg Steger) : 2005-02-04 AHI AC97 playback only driver added (Michal Schulz) : 2005-06-27 NIC amiTCP stack ported with 3com, NE2000, prism2 drivers (Neil Cafferkey) : 2005-08-25 NIC nForce2 support added (Michal Schulz) : 2005-12-24 NIC Intel Pro100 network driver added (Neil Cafferkey) : 2006-03-25 HIDD ATI radeon 2D driver added (Michal Schulz) : 2007-03-06 HIDD vesa 1.0 video driver added (Pavel Fedin) : 2007-03-08 HIDD dospackets and FAT filesystem (Rob Norris) : 2007-03-21 HIDD usb initial commit (Michal Schulz) : 2007-10-01 BOOT Installer added (Neil Cafferkey) : 2007-11-29 PORT 64bit x86 added (Michal Schulz) : 2008-04-12 BOOT GRUB2 added (Alain Greppin and Nick Andrews) : 2008-08-26 NIC RTL8139 added ([http://kalamatee.blogspot.com/ Nick Andrews]) : 2008-10-22 PORT to SAM440ep (ppc) (Michal Schulz) : 2009-02-25 PORT to efika (ppc) (Michal Schulz) : 2009-05-18 HIDD poseidon usb2.0 stack ported to AROS (Chris Hodges) : 2009-11-18 NIC RTL8169 network driver arrived (Nick Andrews and [http://pagesperso-orange.fr/franck.charlet/oldnews.html Franck Charlet]) : 2009-12-23 AHI HDAudio based Atom CPU and netbook audio driver arrived (Davy Wentzler) : 2010-03-09 BOOT USB pendrive stick booting available (Neil Cafferkey) : 2010-05-26 HIDD Intel GMA900 2D graphics card support (Michal Schulz) : 2010-09-03 NIC Wireless PCI based NIC arrived (Neil Cafferkey) : 2011-04-30 HIDD Nvidia 2D and 3D nouveau graphics card support for Aros 32bit (Deadwood) : 2011-08-30 HIDD Radeon 2D enhanced AMD driver arrives (Bearsoft) : 2011-09-17 NIC Wireless USB realtek arrives (Neil Cafferkey) : 2011-12-09 HIDD Intel 945G 3D Gallium graphics support (Sami) : 2013-02-25 AHI AC97 VIA 686 audio support (Davy Wentzler and Neil Cafferkey) : 2013-03-31 PORT early Raspberry PI native support (Nik Andrews) : 2014-01-16 AHI Envy24 audio chipset support (Davy Wentzler and Neil Cafferkey) : 2017-02-17 PORT Symmetric MultiProcessing smp added for x86 64bit (Michal Schulz) : 2018-10-20 PORT Big Endian ARM : 2021-11-26 NIC Broadcom 44xx ethernet (Neil Cafferkey) : 2023-01-12 NIC Nvidia MCP61 ethernet (Neil Cafferkey) : 2025-11-23 HIDD xHCI USB3 and isoc (Nik Andrews) : 2026-07-25 HIDD Nouveau nvidia for Aros 64bit (Deadwood) [[#top|...to the top]] ===Audio Chipsets=== '''If sound beeps in AHI prefs after Music set then some support is there.

The original AudioPCI 3000 card with the ES1370 had a master clock crystal for 44.1 kHz (22.5792 MHz), used an AKM codec (AK4531, non-AC97) and had 4 channel output; Creative later modified the design with a crystal for 48 kHz (24.576 MHz) and Sigmatel AC97 codec (a CT4700 SB128 with a CT5507 chip, AK4531, 22.5792 MHz crystal and TDA7360 speaker power amp). The issue with these cards involved never quite eliminate the effects of resampling on the 64V, it also shows signs of undersized coupling caps. These Ensoniq cards automatically engaged headphone amplifier (with a 4565 opamp).

Units 0 (where most audio comes from) in top left drop down menu to HDaudio - HIFI in the section below. Set Units 1 or 2 to microphone or other outputs. Plus allow more than one channel for multiple audio streams and set frequency up to 44 kHz or higher on the right hand side of the ahi prefs. If sound beeps when you press the test button then all should be OK. Output <- Codec <- Audio Controller (HDA) <-> Computer codecs and exact hardware identifier. As mentioned above, HDA is only part of the work here, it gets the audio out of the main chipset in digital format (on a bus called I2S). This is not enough, there is another step needed which is routing that I2S signal to the output, converting it to actual audio, amplifying it, etc. This is handled by a separate chip called a "codec". Sometimes it is initialized by the BIOS, but this is not always the case. Most audio drivers are made up of two parts a [http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio.txt Controller + a Codec]. The ProductID and VendorID are for the audio controller only - the important additional codec is '''NOT''' so easily identified. Some newer versions of codecs are missing at the moment. Things to try if sound not working * try to connect something to the audio jack, maybe it is not playing on internal speakers or vice versa * make sure you try and select all music units e.g. unit0, unit1.... * even if PCI ID's are in Prefs/Env-Archive/HDaudio.config, this doesn't mean it is working, it is the codec that matters * it might be internally muted <pre> add debug=memory to grub boot line - continue booting with F10 Open a shell Tools/Debug/Bifteck > RAM:audio.txt </pre> or <pre> Open a shell Tools/Debug/Sashimi > RAM:audio.txt Run ahi prefs Click test tone button Stop sashimi with Ctrl-C </pre> If the boot sound is enabled, you have to use Bifteck to capture AHI debug output. In the GRUB menu, press E on your selected entry, then add "debug=memory" to the options (alongside ATA=, vesa= etc.). Then F10 or Ctrl-X to boot. Once booted, run Tools/Debug/Bifteck again. or * try adding QUERYD to the start of ENVARC:hdaudio.config file (also known as Prefs/Env-Archive/) ie. on the first line * '''OR''' try removing QUERY and QUERYD from the start of the hdaudio.config file * Reboot * open a shell * type: sys:tools/debug/sashimi > ram:debug.txt * open ahi prefs * select one of the audio modes - HIFI or otherwise * press the 'test sound' button * press ctrl-c in the shell * post the results to Aros-World The HD Audio standard was designed to be hardware pinout interchangeable so that the sound support could change easily and quickly. HDA is a standard around particular chips. Each kind of chip has a certain number of DACs and pins, and even the same chip could be hooked up in different ways on different motherboards. The chips are programmable and the operating system can adjust how things are routed. Some pins aren’t even hooked up, so it makes no sense to route sound to them. Also some pins have sensors that can tell when something is plugged in, so that for example the speakers in a laptop can be muted when headphones are plugged in. Pins are also grouped, so for example all the outputs for a 5.1 sound system are grouped. Generally the HDA driver in the operating system is supposed to read the pin set up and figure out a reasonable way to set things up, and disconnected pins should be ignored, etc. HDAudio standard has headphones on a separate DAC, and it's up to the driver.. it can even send different audio to the headphones without interrupting the main (green) outputs ====Envy24 series ==== A little history. VIA bought the ICE created Envy chipsets [http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/audio/controllers/comparison_controller.jsp VT1712] first. A few years later, they created several cheaper variants VT1724 (mixer missing), VT1721 (low end cut down), VT1720 (embedded on motherboard) and lastly the VT1723 (no support apart from Windows Envy24DT like SYBA SD-PEX63034). There are PCI Express versions appearing. The Envy24 is the base product that was originally designed by ICEnsemble, and it supports multi-channel hardware mixing, which is great for professional use. The HT version removes the hardware mixer (unimportant for non-professional uses). The [http://www.avsforum.com/t/364771/envy24ht-s-the-definitive-source HT-S] version is almost exactly the same as the HT, it just uses cheaper DACs. The PT version is exactly the same as the HT-S version, it is just the edition used for on-board audio on motherboards. N.B.

Primary difference between software and hardware renderer is output to regular RAM vs GPU RAM, the rest is almost the same. It is possible to render to GPU RAM offscreen. bare bones basics data flow application,>>> api/opengl/vulkan>>>>, jit compiler, >>>>memory manger, >>>>gpu hardware so you need to have a compiler that takes your api call/program/shaders/drawing commands and turns them into a program the gpu can render. the vulkan to amd gpu compiler for shaders and textures is nearly os agnostic iirc as long as you have solid posix compliance Unlike OpenGL, Vulkan does not depend on windowing system and it have driver add-on system with standardized API (Mesa also have OpenGL driver add-ons, but it have non-standard Mesa-specific API). OpenGL may need more work for windowing system related code at this point but developing Vulkan on real hardware is more strategic than developing OpenGL, since now Zink 3 running on Vulkan compensates for the lack of OpenGL support by giving performance similar to native accelerated OpenGL RadeonGfx use client-server model with client-server thread pairs.

older GPUs), '''amdgpu''' (newer driver for newer GPUs, allows using a few new features), i915, nouveau and a few others. They are what handles the gory details of talking to the GPU itself (writing to proper registers, handling its memory directly, configuring outputs, and so on). Unfortunately most of what they're exposing can be only consumed by a single user of that GPU, which is why we need... DRM and DRI (Direct Rendering Manager/Infrastructure) controls access to the GPUs, provides interfaces for talking to the GPU concurrently by multiple apps at once (without them breaking each other) and lets the system perform the most basic tasks like setting proper resolution and such if no userspace apps understand how to talk to the GPU exposed. DRI and DRM expose the GPU interfaces mostly as-is, not in a "vendor-neutral" portable way - if you don't have an application developed specifically for a GPU you have, it won't work. "let's create a vendor-neutral interface for graphics so that apps can ignore the GPU-specific bits and get right to the drawing!" - which is what OpenGL is. User-space drivers implement the OpenGL specification and expose it as an OpenGL library to apps (like games, browsers, etc) instead of the GPU. Mesa is the most popular collection of open-source user-space drivers and contains a few user-space drivers for different GPU families: '''radeonsi''' for most modern AMD GPUs (and '''r600g''', r300g and others for older ones), '''i915/i965''' for old/new Intel GPUs and '''nouveau''' for Nvidia GPUs. There's also Gallium, which is a bunch of utilities and common code shared among these drivers - if certain things can be done once and work everywhere, they'll land in Gallium and benefit all the drivers. Most Mesa drivers use Gallium (radeonsi, nouveau, software renderers), some don't (intel after gma950). Displaying 2D windows supports device-specific 2D drivers as well, but nowadays most of these are no longer needed as the modesetting can handle most hardware on its own. As the DRM/DRI got some additional interfaces for what used to be hardware-specific (setting resolutions, refresh rates, etc) and software requiring accelerated 2D drawing was optimized OpenGL-based renderers, dedicated 2D acceleration is slowly going away. Since around 2012, the 3D part of the graphics card deals with 2D operations. Modern GPUs can also decode video!? There's VDPAU (NVIDIA & AMD GPUs) and VA-API (AMD & Intel GPUs) that can also talk to the GPU exposed via DRM/DRI and issue proper commands to decode/encode a given video stream. Those drivers are GPU-specific too. So let's say you have some example GPUs, here's how example stacks could look like: * AMD Radeon HD8750: amdgpu -> DRM/DRI -> Mesa (radeonsi) * AMD Radeon HD4850: radeon kernel driver -> DRM/DRI -> Mesa (r600g) -> games/apps/etc. * NVIDIA GeForce 460: nouveau kernel driver -> DRM/DRI -> Mesa (nouveau) -> games/apps. * Intel GMA950: i915 kernel driver -> DRM/DRI -> Mesa (i945) -> games/apps. {| class="wikitable sortable" width="90%" ! width="15%" | Description ! width="15%" | Analog Output ! width="15%" | Digital Output ! width="15%" | Laptop LCD ! width=30%" | Comments |- | <!--Description-->Fudomi GC888A | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments-->1080p 100in throw projector |- | <!--Description-->Vamvo VF320 (720P) | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments-->720p 90in |- | <!--Description-->Happrun H1 | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments-->1080p 90in |- | <!--Description-->Umbolite Magcubic HIPPUS HY320 Mini | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments-->720p 100in |- | <!--Description-->Zentality A10 Plus | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments-->720p 110in |- | <!--Description--> | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments--> |- | <!--Description-->nexigo nova mini | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments--> |- | <!--Description-->nebula mars 3 | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments--> |- | <!--Description-->epson lifestudio flex plus portable projector | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments--> |- | <!--Description-->dangbei freedo | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments--> |- | <!--Description-->benq gv50 | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments--> |- | <!--Description--> | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments--> |- | <!--Description--> | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments--> |- | <!--Description--> | <!--Analogue--> | <!--Digital--> | <!--Laptop LCD--> | <!--Comments--> |- |} Unless your computer uses a Firewire chipset manufactured by Texas Instruments, FireWire interfaces are likely to act buggy. AROS is unlikely to ever support FireWire. Bluetooth is similarly unlikely to be ever supported due to huge cost to be certified. No, x86 PCMCIA card.resource at the moment. Writing card.resource would be a similar amount of work to writing a typical driver. However, it might be complicated by having to support a variety of PCMCIA-controller chipsets like TI PCI1225, PCI1410, PCI1420, 1450, PCIxx12 and O2, etc. m68k card.resource does not really have many higher level functions, most functions are really simple or poke Gayle registers directly. only exception is CopyTuple(). Amiga card.resource has one significant flaw: it's single-unit. would need card.resource and pccard.library. There was talk in the past of designing a new API for PCMCIA because card.resource only supports one slot, but since most modern laptops only have one slot anyway, I think it might be worthwhile to implement card.resource as-is (at least as a first step). pccard.library would be trivial to port. So, a new API is needed. 4zxc0mto6ehuhcmuv5w76z9wraqwf0e C programming 0 31445 4655457 4652840 2026-07-24T09:58:02Z ~2026-41329-27 3616622 /* */ Fixed typo,added content 4655457 wikitext text/x-wiki

The subject content covers the basic principles of: * why individuals, organisations and societies have to make choices; * how competitive markets work; * the objectives and competitive behaviour of firms and how explanations of market structure are used by economists to explain this behaviour. ==Managing Scarce Resources== The main economic problem is scarce resources in relation to infinite wants. Everybody must make choices, in economics this is known as opportunity cost. Opportunity Cost: In decision making the next best alternative that could have been chosen. The opportunity cost thus leads to an important tool in economics that is Marginal analysis. Marginal analysis: An approach to economic decision making based on considering the additional(marginal) benefits and costs of a small change in behavior. ==Competitive markets and how they work== ==Firms and how they operate== {{BookCat}} dnx45fnvabl93uhde11rp8ad6sz7kfb Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Order of the Phoenix/Chapter 1 0 54596 4655414 4636789 2026-07-23T15:38:24Z Pookiyama 1766461 /* Greater Picture */ 4655414 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Book/Page|next=Chapter 2|tab=1|title=Dudley Demented}} == Synopsis == {{spoiler}} [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter|Harry]] is once again enduring a dreadful summer with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Petunia Dursley|Aunt Petunia]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Vernon Dursley|Uncle Vernon]]. He is angry and frustrated that he has had little communication with either [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron Weasley|Ron]] or [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Hermione Granger|Hermione]], and feeling isolated and cut off, is desperate for any information about Lord [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort|Voldemort]] and the Wizarding world. One day, he hides in the Dursleys' flower bed under the living room window so he can overhear the Muggle news on TV. He is listening for any reports of unexplained events that, as a wizard, he would recognize as being caused by Dark magic. Hearing a cracking noise that he recognizes as someone [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Apparition|Disapparating]], Harry jumps up, wand at the ready, but bumps his head on the window frame, giving away his presence. An argument ensues with Uncle Vernon, though the need to "keep up appearances" shortens it. Harry leaves, initially to investigate the noise, eventually ending up alone with his thoughts in a playground. He encounters [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dudley Dursley|Dudley]] with his motley friends in the park. Harry, knowing that Dudley fears his magical powers, restrains himself from taunting him. After Dudley's companions leave, he and Harry head back to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Privet Drive|Privet Drive]]. As they reach an alley, it suddenly becomes dark and cold, and they are attacked by 2 [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Dementor|Dementors]]. Harry defends both himself and Dudley from the dementors with a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Expecto Patronum|Patronus Charm]]. However, Dudley is chilled to the bone and later becomes nauseous. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Arabella Figg|Mrs. Figg]] (Harry's neighbour) appears on the scene, and amazingly, she is not at all surprised to see Harry's [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Wand|magic wand]], ordering him not to put it away. == Analysis == Readers can see how lonely Harry is at his erstwhile relatives' home and how unhappy he has always been there. He is trapped inside a world in which he no longer belongs, nor wants to be part of, but [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Professor Dumbledore]] has apparently decreed that he must endure living there each summer. We do not yet know why, but at the previous book's conclusion, Ron says that Dumbledore had vetoed [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Molly Weasley|Mrs. Weasley]]'s invitation to have Harry spend the entire summer at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/The Burrow|the Burrow]]. The Dursleys again show how little they care for their nephew's needs. However, they do treat him better than they used to, and, as Dudley seems to, now fear Harry's magical powers. While Harry and the Dursleys' overall relationship remains unchanged, there has been a gradual power shift within the household, seen as far back as [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Philosopher's Stone|the first book]], when Harry was given Dudley's "extra" bedroom and no longer had to sleep in the cupboard under the stairs. While Harry would never use magic against his relatives, he knows they fear his increasing magical abilities and alliances with wizards, and this has progressively granted him some bargaining leverage. Harry is hungry for information about the Wizarding world he is being isolated from. In the previous book, he witnessed Voldemort's resurrection, and he knows, perhaps as no other excepting Dumbledore, how much evil has returned. However, it seems that Harry is deliberately being denied information, making him very angry and frustrated. While [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rubeus Hagrid|Hagrid]] has been on a mission and is likely unable to write, it seems that Ron and Hermione are deliberately withholding important details from their letters, leaving Harry feeling abandoned. Harry has been carefully watching for any signs of Voldemort's activity restarting, not only in the Wizarding realm, by means of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/The Daily Prophet|the ''Daily Prophet'']], but in the Muggle world, which is why he listens to the Muggle news. Harry is aware that Voldemort considers Muggles unworthy of preservation. The Dementor attack may be a sign that Voldemort is becoming active, and it actually helps relieve Harry's anger and frustration by reestablishing his ties to the magical world. Discovering that batty old Mrs. Figg possesses knowledge about wizards delivers Harry a powerful shock, given the vacuum he is forced to stay in. There have been clues that Mrs. Figg is connected to the Wizarding world since the first book, such as the strange odors emanating from her kitchen and her unusual cats, though Harry was too young and inexperienced a wizard to have recognized them. The attack also brings another character into focus: Dudley. Being a Muggle, he should have been unaware and largely unaffected by the Dementors' presence; however, he was obviously affected by them, just as they were able to detect him. We note that Uncle Vernon yelped and let go of Harry, as if he was feeling some sort of pain. This is almost certainly unconscious use of magic on Harry's part, and probably should have resulted in another official reprimand, but the magic used may have been too small and too localized to register with the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Ministry of Magic|Ministry]] watchdog. == Questions == {{Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Questions}} === Review === # How is Dudley affected by the Dementors? # Why is Harry so intent on listening to the Muggle news? # How has Harry's relationship with the Dursleys changed?

We will find out that the wizard in question was [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Mundungus Fletcher|Mundungus Fletcher]], abandoning his job of watching over Harry in order to complete one of his shady deals. The cat Harry sees running off immediately after the sound is one of Ms. Figg's cats (actually at least part [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Kneazle|Kneazle]]) running to report Mundungus' departure. Mrs. Figg's connection to the Wizarding world was mentioned at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Goblet of Fire/Chapter 36|the end of the previous book]], though it is very carefully formed so as to not attract attention. We never know Mrs. Figg's first name, even the Dursleys call her "old Mrs. Figg", and the complexity of her first name (Arabella) seems to be carefully selected so as to overshadow her last name when Dumbledore mentions it. We will find out that Mrs. Figg is an associate of Dumbledore's and a member of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Order of the Phoenix|the Order of the Phoenix]] from Voldemort's first rise to power, and has been charged with watching over Harry since he was first left at Privet Drive. Slightly connected to this is Dumbledore's insistence that Harry spend time at Privet Drive each summer. Dumbledore has set protective spells on Harry and the house, based on the protection given Harry when [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lily Potter|his mother]] died to save him. That protection will only hold so long as Harry is sheltered by his mother's blood, which is to say as long as his home is the place where one of his mothers' close blood relatives lives. If he stops being able to call Privet Drive home, or reaches the age of majority, that protection will cease. Harry's returning each summer is sufficient to keep Privet Drive his home. While this is Harry's strongest protection, Dumbledore never has only one string to his bow, and has arranged for Harry to be watched and guarded by other means, including Mrs. Figg. Harry is correct in his assumption that Ron and Hermione are deliberately withholding information in their letters. This is on Dumbledore's orders, though why Dumbledore wants Harry to remain unknowing is never fully explained. It is possible that, even at this early stage, Dumbledore worries that Voldemort may know about the linkage between Harry's mind and his own, and is trying to minimize the possible damage should Voldemort snoop in Harry's mind. Dumbledore is aware that, even before Voldemort re-embodied himself, there were two episodes where Harry apparently received clear images from Voldemort's mind. Dumbledore may also feel it is inappropriate for someone Harry's age to be involved in adult matters, even if it is related to Harry. And while Ron and Hermione are certainly not adults, they are in a position to overhear much of what is going on, and Dumbledore does not want them sharing that with Harry, particularly when he is so cut off from anyone who can discuss matters with him. Harry, of course, feels differently. While it is never known exactly why Dementors were at Privet Drive, we do learn [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dolores Umbridge|Dolores Umbridge]] sent them; she is introduced a little later in this book. Her only explanation for sending the Dementors is that, "''something'' had to be done", though she remains mute on just why it had to be done, or why Dementors were the reasonable choice. Dudley perhaps should have been affected less by the Dementors than he was. In [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Prisoner of Azkaban|the third book]], Remus Lupin says that Muggles feel their effects despite not seeing them, a fact reiterated in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince/Chapter 1|Chapter 1]] of ''[[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince|Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince]]''. [http://www.jkrowling.com/textonly/en/extrastuff_view.cfm?id=19 The author has said] that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Squib|Squibs]] are also unable to see them, though we have reason to question that. (In particular, Mrs. Figg's first words in the next chapter, "And now look! Dementors!" make it clear that she recognizes the Dementors somehow, though whether by direct perception or by understanding of the effects is never made clear.) In [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince/Chapter 1|''Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'']], it is mentioned that the Dementors are attacking people, but it is uncertain to what extent Muggles are being targeted. We are led to believe that Dudley suffers from the Dementors more than expected, and it is interesting that the Dementors chose to target Dudley, as well as Harry. Harry wonders briefly about what Dudley may have experienced, as he appears to have had no "worst memories" to relive, having been spoiled and provided for by his family. Although the author later clarified this, the reader is left wondering the same thing. The whole issue of Dementors and their perception by non-magical folk (Muggles and Squibs) is questionable, despite pronouncements by the author. While the effects on Dudley are marked, there is no indication that he actually sees them, only that he is affected by them. His responses on being asked what happened centre purely on the effects, nothing is said about their appearance. Mrs. Figg seems to be able to perceive that they were present, and her word choice seems to suggest that she was aware that there were two there &ndash; she uses the plural when talking about them, even before Harry does. It seems to us that if Mrs. Figg could only perceive their effects, she would be unlikely to know that there were two present, unless she was able to see Harry's Patronus and guess, from the way it moved, that it was dealing with two attackers. We suspect, however, that a Patronus would be no more or less visible to Muggles than a Dementor would be. At the hearing, interestingly, Mrs. Figg describes the Dementors, not terribly accurately, and does describe the Patronus, quite completely, so we believe that she saw Harry, though Harry did not see her until later. We do suggest that if Mrs. Figg had been unable to see the Dementors, but could see the Patronus, she would not be so sure there was more than one Dementor; the Patronus could have been directed at one Dementor which dodged away overhead and behind, then directed to make a second, successful pass at the same Dementor. Because of this, despite the author's stating that Mrs. Figg could not see Dementors, we believe that her later testimony, and what she says in the next chapter, very strongly suggest that she saw at the very least the Dementors' cloaks. But we freely admit that this is only a suggestion, no matter how strong, and that it remains open to debate. Dudley's being affected by the Dementors leads us to an interesting suggestion. According to the author, in an interview prior to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Prisoner of Azkaban|the third book's publication]], [http://www.accio-quote.org/articles/1999/0399-barnesandnoble.html#magic a character, previously believed to be a Muggle] would develop magical abilities unexpectedly late in life ("late" meaning after age 11 or so), and [http://www.jkrowling.com/textonly/en/rumours_view.cfm?id=37 later, on her own site, she stated that it would not be Aunt Petunia]. Although this was expected to happen in ''[[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows|Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows]]'', the author later decided to omit this from the storyline. However, if Dudley suffers the effects from the Dementors that we see in this chapter, it is possible that he was originally intended to be the character to which this would happen, despite the author's later statement that the ordinariness of Vernon's DNA would crush any incipient magic out of Dudley. In that event, Arabella Figg may have been the character the author intended to become magical. Like Dudley, she apparently also detected the Dementors presence when she should have been unable to, and her magical lineage was at least as strong as Dudley's. (At least one of Mrs. Figg's parents must have been a witch or a wizard for her to be classed as a Squib, while Petunia's sister, Dudley's aunt, was a witch.) === Connections === * The Dementor episode in this chapter triggers a change in Dudley's perception of Harry. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows/Chapter 3|In the final book,]] Dudley says that he doesn't believe that Harry is a waste of space, which Harry sees as the compliment that it is meant to be. We believe that Dudley's change of heart, as limited as it is, is triggered by Harry's saving him from the Dementors, and possibly reinforced by Dumbledore's visit at the beginning of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince/Chapter 3|the sixth book]]. * The author built upon the above by stating, in an interview, that the Dementors forced Dudley to see himself for what he really was - a selfish, spoiled bully - something clear to the reader as early as [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Philosopher's Stone|the first book]], but not as evident to Dudley. His change of attitude in the later books was a result of this. 6kav0uwq42l8cl09lk8xi7evnvubh6k 4655415 4655414 2026-07-23T15:39:03Z Pookiyama 1766461 /* Further Study */ 4655415 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Book/Page|next=Chapter 2|tab=1|title=Dudley Demented}} == Synopsis == {{spoiler}} [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter|Harry]] is once again enduring a dreadful summer with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Petunia Dursley|Aunt Petunia]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Vernon Dursley|Uncle Vernon]].

We believe that Dudley's change of heart, as limited as it is, is triggered by Harry's saving him from the Dementors, and possibly reinforced by Dumbledore's visit at the beginning of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince/Chapter 3|the sixth book]]. * The author built upon the above by stating, in an interview, that the Dementors forced Dudley to see himself for what he really was - a selfish, spoiled bully - something clear to the reader as early as [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Philosopher's Stone|the first book]], but not as evident to Dudley. His change of attitude in the later books was a result of this. ba9jyi7c4ekgtw64j0pypv8u38r3kp1 Bartending/Cocktails/Gin and Orange Juice 0 75599 4655450 3517120 2026-07-24T02:15:28Z Godsy 2010431 bold 4655450 wikitext text/x-wiki Often called an '''Orange Blossom''', this drink is simply 1.5oz Gin topped with Orange Juice.

It is very important for family and for general social development, because it is where we live and so it must be comfortable and healthy. Many types of houses are difficult to build; they require a lot of knowledge and work to create them. To be a good house it must comply with a few basic functions. *Be a functional and healthy environment for those that live in it. *Inside of the house, one must be protected from wind, cold, heat, rain sand and dust. *Last many years without requiring much maintenance. There are many ways to build a house. Houses vary according to their location; they change due to cultural differences and also due to the local resources available to create them. In cold places houses must be more compact and have thick walls and small windows to resist the cold, they also have heating systems. In the hottest places the houses are built below ground level so that the earth keeps them cool during the day, they also have central courtyards to create shade from the sun. The forest areas the houses are made from wood, in the mountains they are made from stone, in areas with clay they are made from brick. In areas where there is seismic activity it is important to consider this when designing the structure of the house. Each country has its own regulation to guide this work. ==Housing for Cold Climates== In cold climates a house must insulate its inhabitants from the outside temperature. This is achieved by creating walls that are made from materials that insulate well, often requiring layers of different materials. It is also necessary to include a heating system for the house. The type of heating will depend on the resources available (wood, gas, kerosene or electric), this should always be minimised by using the passive solar heating that the sun supplies. To make the passive solar heating from the sun more effective it is important to orientate the most important rooms towards the equator. (In the Southern Hemisphere towards the North, and in the Northern Hemisphere towards the South). ===Passive Heating of Houses=== Passive heating of living spaces is created by what is called the “greenhouse effect” because a greenhouse is a building made of glass used to grow plants in cool climates or accelerate growth by increasing the warmth. Glass creates a greenhouse effect because the glass only transmits some light waves, this means that the light is trapped inside and bounces around within the area; the result is that there is more heat gain through the window, than heat loss. ====Resources for good insulation:==== *Thick walls and ceiling made of materials with low heat transfer. *Walls and ceiling filled with insulation material that creates an air space (glass wool, cork, hay etc.) *Walls and ceiling with an air space (a double wall or ceiling). *Walls and ceiling insulated from water so that heat is not transferred with the moisture. *Doors and windows that insulate (double glazed or double doors). And that way the heat from the heating will stay in the building ==Housing for Hot Climate== In hot areas it is important to cool the house down to make it comfortable to live in. The house must have walls and ceiling that insulate the inter spaces from the outside heat just like a house in cold climates. The house must also have as much of its walls and floor in contact with the earth because the earth does not heat up as much as the air especially if the night time temperatures are lower than the day time temperatures. The house must be shaded from direct sunlight this can be done by building the house partially under the ground, or by planting trees around the house.Cavity wall construction can be taken up at south and west sides considering the solar path . ==Housing for Windy Climates == Houses built for windy climates need to be strongly anchored to the ground and need the roofs to be designed to support the force of the wind. ==Choosing the right materials== Choosing the right materials to build a house depends on the region that the house it to be built in. Each area of the planet it different and has many different materials that can be used for housing. ===Earth Bricks === Earth bricks can be made from some types of clay it is a very common material and requires very little energy to turn into a construction material. ====Required Resources==== *Spade or shovel *Cement *A press to create the earth bricks ====Construction System ==== The earth is mixed with a small amount of cement (without water) and then pressed into brick shape and left to harden. The humidity of the environment will enter the brick mixing with the cement and harden it. Normally small bricks are made so that they are easy to transport and work with. It is considered one the most environmentally friendly construction methods. The main disadvantage is it can not be used in the construction of the roof unless a arched or domed roof is created. ===Ceramic Brick=== This brick is made from clay which when heated goes hard to form a brick. It is very common in many parts of the world, but it is a material that is very fertile and so its use for construction reduces the fertile land in the area, it also used a lot of heat energy for its creation. ===Wood=== Wood houses has a long tradition in Asia, and the United Status. If there are renewable wood forest to supply the wood very efficient construction can be done by creating kit-set houses. ====Necessary resources==== *Pieces of wood cut to size and dried. *Saws, hammers and nails also bolts for more important joints.. ====Construction system==== The wood must be cut into lengths; these are normally standardized so that builders can use the same practices for more than one house. These are used to create the structure of the house and panelling is used to close the house. Insulation should be included between the inner and outer panels. Wood does not resist water and will rot if not treated with chemicals in humid climates. Because of this it is best suited to dry climates. ===Installations=== A good house should also have running water and a toilet and bathroom so that the inhabitants can keep clean and also have access to water to drink and cook with. ==Environmental considerations== [[es:Tecnologías para el Desarrollo Rural/Cómo Construir una Casa]] ==Links== http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_house {{BookCat}} hu2gd5jhz6vnamx5cvowq0oy9snkie4 4655441 4655440 2026-07-23T19:42:49Z Darrelljon 45960 /* Passive Heating of Houses */ File:Passive-house scheme HQ.png 4655441 wikitext text/x-wiki <div style="text-align: center;"><big><big><big>'''Building houses'''</big></big></big></div><br><br> The building of houses is fundamental for human development, especially in areas of the globe with extreme weather conditions.

A manufacturer that builds fewer than 1000 vehicles per year uses a 9 as the third digit and the 12th, 13th and 14th position of the VIN for a second part of the identification. Some manufacturers use the third character as a code for a vehicle category (e.g., bus or truck), a division within a manufacturer, or both. For example, within 1G (assigned to General Motors in the United States), 1G1 represents Chevrolet passenger cars; 1G2, Pontiac passenger cars; and 1GC, Chevrolet trucks. ===WMI Regions=== The first character of the WMI is the region in which the manufacturer is located. In practice, each is assigned to a country of manufacture. Common auto-manufacturing countries are noted. <ref>{{cite web | url=https://standards.iso.org/iso/3780/ | title=ISO Standards Maintenance Portal: ISO 3780 | publisher=[[wikipedia:International Organization for Standardization]]}}</ref> {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" |- !

A manufacturer that builds fewer than 1000 vehicles per year uses a 9 as the third digit and the 12th, 13th and 14th position of the VIN for a second part of the identification. Some manufacturers use the third character as a code for a vehicle category (e.g., bus or truck), a division within a manufacturer, or both. For example, within 1G (assigned to General Motors in the United States), 1G1 represents Chevrolet passenger cars; 1G2, Pontiac passenger cars; and 1GC, Chevrolet trucks. ===WMI Regions=== The first character of the WMI is the region in which the manufacturer is located. In practice, each is assigned to a country of manufacture. Common auto-manufacturing countries are noted. <ref>{{cite web | url=https://standards.iso.org/iso/3780/ | title=ISO Standards Maintenance Portal: ISO 3780 | publisher=[[wikipedia:International Organization for Standardization]]}}</ref> {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" |- !

Henrik Nilsson 3395618 subtantially > substantially 4655454 wikitext text/x-wiki We present here simple tools to compute the flow in complex network of channels, just knowing the applied pressure. == Hydrodynamic resistance == Flow rate <math> Q</math> in a channel is proportional to the applied pressure drop <math>\Delta P</math>. This can be summarized in :<math>\Delta P=R_h Q,</math> with <math>R_h</math> the '''hydrodynamic resistance'''. This expression is formally the analog of the electrokinetic law between voltage difference and current, <math>U=R I</math>. The expression for the hydraulic resistance is: * channel of circular cross-section (total length <math>L</math>, radius <math>R</math>): :<math>R_h=\frac{8\mu L}{\pi R^4}</math> * rectangular cross-section (<math>\mu</math> is fluidic viscosity, width <math>w</math> and height <math>h</math>, expression valid when <math>h<w</math>) <ref>[http://homes.nano.aau.dk/lg/Lab-on-Chip2010_files/HenrikBruus_Microfluidics%20lectures.pdf]Bruus, Henrik. (2008). Theoretical Microfluidics.</ref> :<math>R_h\approx \frac{12 \mu L}{w h^3(1-0.630 h/w)}</math> In a network of channels, equivalent resistances can be computed (as in electrokinetics): * two channels ''in series'' have a resistance <math>R_h=R_{h1}+R_{h2}</math>, * two channels ''in parallel'' have a resistance <math>1/R_h=1/R_{h1}+1/R_{h2}.</math> These laws provide useful tools for the design of complex networks. Actually Kirchhoff's laws for electric circuits apply, being modified in: * the sum of flow rates on a node of the circuit is zero * the sum of pressure differences on a loop is zero == Hydrodynamic capacitance == The volume of fluid in a channel can change just because of a change in pressure: this is either due to fluid compressibility or channel elasticity. This behavior can be summarized with :<math>Q=C_h \frac{d\Delta P}{dt}</math> with <math>C_h</math> the hydrodynamic capacitance. It is the microfluidic analog of the electrokinetic law <math>I=C\,dU/dt</math>. === Compressible fluid in a container === A pressure increase can compress the fluid in a container. The compressibility is measured by :<math>K_{fluid}=-\frac{1}{V}\frac{\partial V}{\partial P}.</math> For water its value is <math>K=4.6\times 10^{-5}/bar</math> which is usually negligible since pressure are usually less than a bar. For air it is <math>K=1/P=1/bar</math> which considerable if pressure attain a bar. The flow rate entering a tube of volume <math>V</math>, because of fluid compression <math>d\Delta P/dt</math> is: :<math>Q=-\frac{dV}{dt}=V\left(-\frac{1}{V}\frac{\partial V}{\partial P}\right) \frac{d\Delta P}{dt}=K_{fluid} V \frac{d\Delta P}{dt}</math> The hydrodynamic capacitance is therefore: :<math>C_h=K_{fluid} V</math> === Elastic tubes === We define the tube dilatability as :<math>K_{tube}=\frac{1}{V_{tube}}\frac{\partial V_{tube}}{\partial P}</math> It has a positive sign, since the tube volume increases with pressure. The tube dilatability is approximately the inverse of the Young modulus <math>K\simeq 1/E.</math> The following table gives order of magnitude of this dilatability for different materials {| border="2" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" style="margin: 1em 1em 1em 0; background: #f9f9f9; border: 1px #aaa solid; border-collapse: collapse;" |- |- | | <math>K_{tube}</math> |- | steel | <math>\scriptstyle 0.5\times 10^{-6}</math>/bar |- | plastic | <math> 0.01</math>/bar |- | rubber | <math>0.1</math>/bar |} This value can be interpreted in the following way: if the pressure is increased by 1 bar the relative volume increase is <math>K_{tube}</math> ''Assuming a uniform pressure in the tube'' (which is not true in long tube where pressure decreases substantially) , we find a flow rate entering the tube to inflate to be :<math>Q=\frac{dV_{tube}}{dt}=K_{tube}V\frac{\Delta P}{dt}</math> The hydrodynamic capacitance is therefore :<math>C_{h}=K_{tube}V.</math> == Modelling of an elastic long tube with a substantial pressure drop == We consider a tube of length <math>L</math> on which a pressure difference <math>\Delta P</math> is applied. In the tube, the pressure decreases along the tube coordinate <math>x</math> as <math>P(x)=P_0+(1-x/L)\Delta P</math>. The dilatation is therefore not homogeneous: larger near the entrance. The volume increase of the tube (compared to the rest situation at pressure <math>P_0</math>) is :<math>\Delta V=\int_0^L \left(1-\frac{x}{L}\right)\Delta P \; K_{tube} \frac{dx}{L} V_{tube}=\frac{\Delta P}{2}K_{tube} V.</math> We have integrated the inflation of small volumes <math>dx/L\times V_{tube}</math>. [[Image:ElasticTubeModelisation.svg|thumb|200px|left|Equivalent circuit to a long elastic tube]] We obtain that the flow due to dilatation is :<math>Q=\frac{d\Delta V}{dt}=C_{tube}\frac{d\Delta P/2}{dt}</math> meaning that only half the pressure difference loads the volume ''capacitor''. The capacitor is placed in the middle of the channel, where the overpressure is half, see figure. == Application: syringe injection in a microchannel == The syringe may be considered as a tube of diameter <math>R</math> and volume <math>V</math>, while the cylindrical microchannel has a diameter <math>r\ll R</math> , a volume <math>v\ll V</math>, and a length <math>l</math>. The resistance of the microchannel <math>R_v=8\mu l/\pi r^4</math> is much larger than that of the syringe: <math>R_v \gg R_V</math>. However the capacitance of the syringe is usually much larger: <math>C_V \gg C_v</math>, due to a large surface area of walls (if the walls are elastic) and due to much larger volume of the syringe (if the liquid is compressible). The equivalent circuit is shown in the picture. [[Image:SyringeMicrochannelModelisation.svg|thumb|200px|left|Equivalent circuit to a long elastic tube]] The total flow is distributed in the microchannel branch and the capacitor branch: :<math>Q_{piston}=\frac{1}{R_v}\Delta P+C_V\frac{d\Delta P}{dt}</math> If the piston is suddenly started, initially water or tube elasticity will absorb the flow, and the flow approaches its stationary state asymptotically, with the characteristic time given as follows: :<math>\tau=R_v \,C_V=\frac{8\mu l}{\pi r^4} V K,</math> where <math>K</math> is the effective compressibility (both from the compressibility of liquid and from the elasticity of the container). As an example, we take a microchannel of radius 10 micrometers, length 1 cm and a syringe of volume 1cc: the characteristic time is 10 seconds, if the syringe is rigid (glass) and <math>K=K_{water}</math>, while it takes up to 1000 seconds if the syringe is made from plastic <math>K=K_{plastic}</math> ! As a conclusion, for practical realization of microfluidic networks: * avoid elastic tubes and prefer metallic tubes for a faster equilibration * avoid elastic glues in contact with the liquid: they will compress * avoid bubbles in the system, the compressibility of any gas is extremely high compared to plastic! * impose pressure with a valve, instead of piston velocity: the pressure equilibrates at the speed of sound in the liquid and changes in pressure are very rapidly applied to the whole system.

This line was once considered harmless before being used by Bobby Fischer to defeat Tigran Petrosian in 1970. The pawn structure resembles a Carlsbad structure with reversed colours, so some of the strategic ideas are analogous to the Queen's Gambit Declined, Exchange Variation (1. d4 d5 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 Nf6 4. cxd5 exd5). === c4. Panov-Botvinnik Attack === The Panov-Botvinnik attack is a sharp alternative for white, with white often accepting long-term weaknesses for a strong direct attack. Note that 4. Nc3?! would be a poor move due to the fact that the knight doesn't do much. e4 is poison, while e6 will turn d5 into a rock. Therefore, c4 followed by Nc3 is far better since then, there would be pressure on d5. ==Theory table== {{ChessTable}} {{Chess/theory table |name1= |line1=4. c4 |eval1= |name2= |line2=4.

Odd as it may seem, unfortunately I can't speak any Finnish. My family name consists of two parts: ''kron'' – a short form of the Swedish word ''krona'' meaning 'crown', as in coronation crown or tree crown – and ''kvist'', meaning 'bough' or 'twig'. Hence the name ''Kronkvist'' refers to a twig in the canopy of a forest. I'm the fourth generation of Kronkvist's. Before that our family name was ''Mattus'', dating back from at least 1637. I've lived all over Sweden (for example in Stockholm and in the Gothenburg area) but nowadays reside in Uppsala, the fourth biggest city and former capital of Sweden. 0wttomdu8x7grkhis4xjrrip3v2k0rg History of Western Political Thought/Aristotle 0 383033 4655456 4294742 2026-07-24T08:07:12Z All About World History 3610638 Added links 4655456 wikitext text/x-wiki '''Aristotle''' was an ancient Greek philosopher and scientist born in the city of Stagira, Chalkidice, on the northern periphery of Classical Greece. His father, {{w|Nicomachus (son of Aristotle)|Nicomachus}}, died when Aristotle was a child, whereafter Proxenus of Atarneus became his guardian. At seventeen or eighteen years of age, he joined Plato's Academy in Athens and remained there until the age of thirty-seven (c. 347 BC). His writings cover many subjects – including physics, biology, zoology, metaphysics, logic, ethics, aesthetics, poetry, theater, music, rhetoric, psychology, linguistics, politics and government – and constitute the first comprehensive system of Western philosophy.

Since time immemorial, people have moved to flee persecution, war, religious intolerance, governmental instability, and criminal sanction. However, it is only in the twentieth century in which the international community began to respond to such persons on the move in the organized fashion that entailed the creation of a refugee status determination system.

The specific term 'refugee' is of a more recent pedigree, having been first coined in the 1600s in France. The concept's genealogy is entwined with the emergence of the modern view of state sovereignty at that time in Europe. This section traces the history of these two concepts and how the refugees of the 17th century differed from earlier exiles and moving persons. The world today is divided into sovereign states. All individuals are to be organized into populations and divided territorially amongst these states. In this way, the international state system is both a way of organizing political power, and also a means of organizing people.<ref>Haddad, E. (2008).

In this way, the concept of state sovereignty that emerged with the Peace of Westphalia helped build the modern concept of the state which partitions the world into a vast juxtaposition of independent territorial units.<ref>Chetail, V. (2019). ''International Migration Law''. London, England: Oxford University Press, page 16.</ref> One of the facets of this system was that territory was consolidated, unified, and centralized under a sovereign government and the population of the territory now owed final allegiance to this sovereign. The sovereign state could demand, among other things, religious and linguistic conformity to ensure such allegiance.<ref>Haddad, E. (2008).

Emma Haddad writes "From the 1670s to the start of the eighteenth century it is estimated that between 200,000 and 500,000 French Protestants left France as refugees to seek protection abroad" in Haddad, E.

To begin with, the total number of members of the Reformed Church of France is estimated to be around 900,000. Some sources indicate that the most likely number of emigrants is 200,000 approximately, whereas the others give hyper-inflated figures like 800,000 which basically means France was deprived of nearly the whole of its Protestant population. Concerning those who chose England as their destination, the number is approximated to be between 40,000 to 50,000.” See Hazal Barbaros, ''Post Tenebras Lux: The Huguenot Diaspora in Early Modern London and its Reflections in Refugee Wills'', Master’s Thesis, August 2021, Department of History, İhsan Doğramacı Bilkent University, Ankara, <http://repository.bilkent.edu.tr/bitstream/handle/11693/76474/10412602.pdf?sequence=1> (Accessed August 28, 2021), pages 9-10 of document.</ref> of Reformed Protestant French migrants who escaped the French Catholic monarch to move to non-Catholic European countries<ref>Melanie Baak, Once a Refugee, Always a Refugee?

In this way, it is no coincidence that the term "refugee" emerged at this time in the 17th century alongside the rise of the modern conception of the state. Indeed, Harsha Walia labels the very concept of an asylum seeker a "state-centric taxonomy only possible because of a prevailing assumption of the border as a legitimate institution of governance".<ref>Albeit she is referring to the related term of “asylum seeker” in this quote. See: Harsha Walia, ''Border & Rule'', Winnipeg: Fernwood Publishing, ISBN: 9781773634524, page 6.</ref> As Betts and Collier argue, what was new post-Peace of Westphalia was the way that governments began to conceive of themselves as being able to govern refugee movements.<ref>Betts, Alexander, and Paul Collier. ''Refuge: Rethinking Refugee Policy in a Changing World''. 2017: New York, NY: Oxford University Press. Page 36.</ref> This raised two principal questions: when could states offer refuge, and when could would-be refugees expect it? The question of when and whether states could offer refuge was hotly contested. Many states considered it within their power to prohibit emigration. For example, after the arrival of hundreds of thousands of Jews from Spain and Portugal in the 1490s, Sultan Bayezid II of the Ottoman Empire prohibited Jewish emigration from his lands on the grounds that it would create a significant loss both to the economy and the treasury of the Sultan.<ref>W. Gunther Plaut, ''Asylum: A Moral Dilemma'', Westport, Conn.: Praeger, 1995, page 49.</ref> Historically, and as discussed below in the section on pre-Confederation Canada, the institutions of slavery and servitude were also major restrictions on the right to move in any direction. As the Huguenots fled France in the 1600s, Louis XIV demanded that these "traitors" be returned on the grounds that most had left France without his permission. When the Swiss failed to execute an order repatriating these refugees, relations between Switzerland and France deteriorated, and the French threatened the Swiss with war.<ref>W. Gunther Plaut, ''Asylum: A Moral Dilemma'', Westport, Conn.: Praeger, 1995, page 41.</ref> Ultimately, most Huguenot refugees who went to Geneva were denied citizenship - probably because the authorities feared that the French would retaliate for such an "offence" - and the Swiss began to urge the refugees to seek permanent asylum elsewhere. In the end, no armed conflict between France and Switzerland took place.<ref>W. Gunther Plaut, ''Asylum: A Moral Dilemma'', Westport, Conn.: Praeger, 1995, page 42.</ref> Nonetheless, the question of the right of states to offer refuge, and states' ability to restrict departures, persisted as a cause of inter-state discord. From the 1840s, the right of states to offer refuge became more clearly defined. After the repression of the Hungarian uprising of 1848 by the Hapsburgs, many Hungarians fled to the Ottoman Empire (Turkey). Russia (which had a role in suppressing the uprising) and Austria requested the refugees' refoulement. Turkey replied that its honour was at stake, as well as the humanity of the Sultan, and since both France and the United States sided with Turkey, Russia and Austria relented.<ref>W. Gunther Plaut, ''Asylum: A Moral Dilemma'', Westport, Conn.: Praeger, 1995, page 39.</ref> The other question that emerged at this time was when could would-be refugees expect to receive refuge. Rebecca Hamlin contrasts the concept of the refugee, which entails crossing an international border and appealing to a state for protection, with practices from earlier in European history when appeals for protection could be made to families, individuals, and religious leaders, not just states.<ref name=":60" /> For the most part, the question of who could avail themselves of refuge was not seriously explored. It went without saying that one could only seek refuge among those willing to offer hospitality; for example, when protestants fled England for Frankfurt in the 1550s, an initial embrace of the refugees shortly gave way to unease at their growing number and an eventual ban on the refugees’ form of worship, which caused many to move on to more hospitable locales.<ref name=":92" /> As will be detailed below, it was not until 1920 that there was a serious concern with delimiting the scope of the term refugee and which individuals might be entitled to such status.<ref name=":86" /> Emma Haddad sets out this evolution in more detail and argues that the phenomenon of the "refugee" that emerged alongside the state system, and developed into the twentieth century, came to be marked by its new scale, bureaucratized processes, clear definitions of insiders and outsiders occasioned by newly locked borders and assumptions about the nation state being the proper home for individuals, and the lack of obvious receiving countries as national identities increasingly superseded religious ones.<ref>Haddad, E. (2008). The Refugee in International Society: Between Sovereigns (Cambridge Studies in International Relations). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. doi:10.1017/CBO9780511491351, page 62.</ref> == Refugee and population movements in pre-confederation Canada == Turning to Canada, (im)migration processes, of various sorts, including ones involving the search for refuge, have long been present in this territory. Asking about the history of refugee processes in Canada’s territory raises an ontological question about who should qualify as a refugee when one looks at population flows of centuries past. To the extent that refugees may be regarded as those with experiences marked by discrimination, displacement across borders, a severing of the bond between the individual and their government, and an overriding apprehension of persecution in their home community, persons meeting such criteria have a long history in this land. That said, the concept of the refugee is indeed a modern one, as described above, and applying it to population movements of pre-confederation Canada is surely anachronistic. In Rebecca Hamlin's words, "to look back and place a refugee/migrant binary onto crossings of the past does not accurately reflect the realities of those events."<ref>Rebecca Hamlin, ''Crossing: How We Label and React to People on the Move'', Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 2021, {{#isbn:9781503627888}}, page 29.</ref> It is nonetheless appropriate to review (not erase) the history of population movements in the territory of Canada, both indigenous and colonial, and to chart how the contemporary concept of the refugee has been deeply linked with the modern colonial state. Indeed, it is argued that if it insufficiently highlights such linkages, migration studies scholarship may complicit in a “willing amnesia” that “imagines away” First Nations’ claims and rights.<ref>Stephanie J. Silverman, Immigration Detention in Canada: Concepts and Controversies, Forced Migration in/to Canada: From Colonization to Refugee Resettlement, Edited by Christina R. Clark-Kazak, {{#isbn:9780228022176}}, page 298.</ref> To start, movement and displacement of persons in the territory of Canada is not new. Some First Nations were highly itinerant, as with the Blackfoot who would follow bison across the prairies to hunting grounds where they would utilize bison jumps and runs.<ref>Dempsey, Hugh A.. "Blackfoot Confederacy".  The Canadian Encyclopedia, 18 July 2019, Historica Canada. <nowiki>https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/blackfoot-nation</nowiki>. Accessed 25 October 2021.</ref> The Blackfoot Confederacy joined the Blackfoot, Blood and Piegan nations located in the Great Plains region of Canada and the United States. They shared a common nomadic lifestyle based on the movement of bison, which they relied on for their sustenance. Warfare between First Nations also led to indigenous persons fleeing aggression and moving to new regions. For example, in the 16th century, the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) embarked on campaigns to subjugate or disperse neighbouring groups while pursuing an ancient ideal that they “extend the rafters of the longhouse” by absorbing their neighbours into one nation and thereby produce a universal peace.<ref>Heidenreich, C.E.. "Huron-Wendat".  The Canadian Encyclopedia, 10 October 2018, Historica Canada. https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/huron. Accessed 01 January 2021.</ref> In 1649 the Haudenosaunee dispersed the French-allied Huron-Wendat from their homeland by destroying villages. Haudenosaunee dispersal campaigns then impacted the Petun, Neutral and Erie in the 1650s, with those nations dissolving and their members either joining together to form new communities or joining pre-existing Iroquoian nations.<ref name=":21">Peter G. Ramsden and Zach Parrott, "Haudenosaunee (Iroquois)" ''in The Canadian Encyclopedia'', August 28, 2015 <https://thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/iroquois> (Accessed December 30, 2020). </ref> Forced displacement of Indigenous persons also resulted from the actions of the colonial regimes that took hold in Canada and the United States. European powers established their North American colonies on lands that they seized from the pre-existing Indigenous nations. These seizures involved the imposition of borders and attendant physical, social, and cultural displacement. As discussed below, this had a number of consequences, including that many First Nations persons were killed by disease and warfare and had their mobility and way of life disrupted by this new colonial order. Finally, the concept of the refugee may also be thought of as a legal concept, and in this respect the First Nations in Canada have long faced questions about how to define and justify the conditions of community membership. Today such questions are primarily viewed through the lens of immigration and citizenship in the Canadian legal regime, but in indigenous legal regimes they may equally be viewed through the concepts of family law, house group membership, and kinship rights, among others.<ref>For a discussion of the universality of such concepts, see: Kelley, Ninette, and Michael J. Trebilcock. ''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print.

Turning to the colonial regimes in North America, they used force to establish themselves and to erect international boundaries. The international boundary between Canada and the United States was officially agreed upon in 1846 but surveying and marking it on the prairie wasn't completed until 1874.<ref name=":95">Turtle Mountain – Souris Plains Heritage Association, Heritage Explorer, ''Dakota Claim in Canada'', <https://vantagepoints.ca/stories/dakota-claim-canada/> (Accessed July 15, 2024).</ref> These borders have served to restrict First Nations' mobility - British North America and the United States of America required the First Nations to subject themselves to these emergent entities, even where pre-existing living arrangements did not neatly fit on one side of the border or the other. For example, Crees and Chippewas from Canada became considered "foreign Indians" in the United States and deportable "illegal immigrants" despite ties to lands in the present-day United States that pre-date that country's founding.<ref>Harsha Walia, ''Border & Rule'', Winnipeg: Fernwood Publishing, ISBN: 9781773634524, page 25.</ref> The subversive chant "we didn't cross the border, the border crossed us" is, for this situation, entirely apt.<ref>Harsha Walia, ''Border & Rule'', Winnipeg: Fernwood Publishing, ISBN: 9781773634524, page 23.</ref> For their part, the Dakota and Lakota nations were labelled American “Indians” who only came to Canada as "refugees" in the 1860s, despite archeological evidence, historical records, and oral knowledge indicating their presence in present-day Canada dates back at least 800 years.<ref name=":95" /> The background to this was that in 1851, the Dakota signed a treaty with the American government in which the Dakota were forced to surrender all of their land. The Dakota attempted to turn their situation around in the summer of 1862 with the coordination of an armed revolt. What is known as the Dakota War or Sioux Uprising of 1862 was not a success, and in November of that year about 1000 Dakota arrived outside the gates of Fort Garry on the Red River (now the city of Winnipeg) seeking refuge from the American military. They arrived claiming that they had an historic right to be on British soil and that the lands were in fact part of their traditional territory. At the time, the Canadian government totally ignored the issue of whether or not the Dakota had title to Canadian lands, but “tolerated” the Dakota presence in Canada and allowed them to stay. This was partly a matter of grace, but also largely due to the fact that there was no sufficient army existent in Canada at the time to force the Dakota to leave. There are nine Dakota and Lakota bands in Canada today—four in Saskatchewan and five in Manitoba.<ref name=":96">CBC News, ''Canada to formally apologize to 9 Dakota, Lakota Nations for historic designation as refugees,'' Jul 14, 2024 <https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/manitoba-sask-apology-dakota-lakota-1.7263101>.</ref> The government's use of the term "refugee" in this context has been considered controversial to offensive, with one Dakota elder asking the poignant question: “How would you like to be called a refugee in your own country?”<ref name=":95" /> Starting in 2024, the Canadian government committed to dealing with the Dakota and Lakota as First Nations with rights in Canada, not simply as refugees.<ref name=":96" /> Moving from the dislocation wrought by international boundaries to what occurred within national boundaries, the colonial regimes erected borders which limited mobility, including the borders involved in the reserve system, which abrogated many relationships with traditional territories, and involved related social, cultural, and political displacements.<ref>Melissa May Ling Chung, ''The Relationships Between Racialized Immigrants And Indigenous Peoples In Canada: A Literature Review'', MA Thesis, 2012 <https://digital.library.ryerson.ca/islandora/object/RULA%3A1429> (Accessed December 30, 2020).</ref> Many Indigenous persons were compelled to reside on reserves, and, after the 1885 Northwest Rebellion, the federal government developed a pass system — a process by which Indigenous people had to present a travel document authorized by an Indian agent in order to leave and return to their reserves.<ref>Nestor, Rob, "Pass System in Canada".

Over the next year, as these Indigenous persons returned to their home communities, they took Smallpox with them, and at least 30,000 Indigenous people are reported to have died from the disease, representing about 60 per cent of the extant First Nations population.<ref>Joshua Ostroff, ''How a smallpox epidemic forged modern British Columbia,'' August 1, 2017, Maclean's, <https://www.macleans.ca/news/canada/how-a-smallpox-epidemic-forged-modern-british-columbia/> (Accessed October 30, 2021).</ref> Indeed, one of the most significant effects of colonialism was the large number of First Nations persons in Canada who died of diseases introduced by European colonists. One of the effects of such deaths was the emergence of post-contact communities such as the Abenaki, an aboriginal group in present-day New Brunswick and Quebec which emerged when numerous smaller bands and tribes, who shared linguistic, geographical, and cultural traits, joined together into a new political grouping after their original tribes were destroyed by disease and warfare.<ref>Lee Sultzman (July 21, 1997). "Abenaki History". Archived from the original on April 11, 2010. Retrieved March 20, 2010.</ref> Apart from the effects of such epidemics and forced movements, the newly created nation of Canada also effected the social and cultural displacement of the pre-existing aboriginal peoples. In the words of the section of the final report of the ''Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples'' on displacement and assimilation: <blockquote>[The impact of colonialism on indigenous populations was profound.] Perhaps the most appropriate term to describe that impact is 'displacement'. Aboriginal peoples were displaced physically — they were denied access to their traditional territories and in many cases actually forced to move to new locations selected for them by colonial authorities. They were also displaced socially and culturally, subject to intensive missionary activity and the establishment of schools — which undermined their ability to pass on traditional values to their children, imposed male-oriented Victorian values, and attacked traditional activities such as significant dances and other ceremonies. In North America they were also displaced politically, forced by colonial laws to abandon or at least disguise traditional governing structures and processes in favour of colonial-style municipal institutions.<ref>Report of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples.

For example, after American troops destroyed 40-50 Cayuga villages in the present-day US in 1779, many peoples of the Cayuga tribe fled the United States to seek refuge in British North America, and in so doing relied on these new borders for their associated guarantee of safety.<ref>Emerson Klees.

The people that the British encouraged to relocate included persons who would rightfully be termed refugees today.

In the 1700s, the British enacted deliberate policies to reinforce the British character of its North American possessions. This included the forced deportation of French-speaking Acadians from present-day Nova Scotia. In 1755, Lieutenant-Governor Lawrence and his council decided that the Acadians should be dispersed among the several colonies on the continent through forced transhipment. More than 3000 Acadians were transported to southern British colonies in the present-day United States that year. In total, three-quarters of the Acadian population in Nova Scotia was removed. As many as a third of the passengers died on the ships. Many Acadians sought refuge on Prince Edward Island and in Cape Breton, but they gained only temporary respite. In 1758, another British expedition against Louisbourg forced its surrender; 6000 more Acadians were then forcibly removed from their homes.<ref>Kelley, Ninette, and Michael J. Trebilcock. ''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print. Pages 34-35.</ref> Some of the homes were then burned. Furthermore, the land grants the Crown awarded to United Empire Loyalists often included territories formerly occupied by the Acadians, thereby preventing the Acadians from returning are reoccupying the lands, for example in the region of Fort Sainte-Anne, now Fredericton, and in the area around the Annapolis River in Nova Scotia, where formerly Acadian lands were granted to settlers from New England beginning in 1759. While the governments in pre-Confederation Canada made explicit efforts to entice persons who can aptly be titled refugees to choose to come to the country, they were generally individuals who hailed from the "right countries" and were of desired races, religions, and nationalities. For example, John Graves Simcoe, the first lieutenant-governor of Upper Canada, issued a proclamation in 1792 inviting Americans to emigrate to Upper Canada. This included a special appeal to the members of pacifist religious communities, including Quakers, Mennonites, and Dunkards, which promised them an exemption from military service.<ref>Valerie Knowles, ''Strangers at Our Gates: Canadian Immigration and Immigration Policy, 1540-2015'', March 2016, {{#isbn:978-1-45973-285-8}}, Dundurn Press: Toronto, p. 45-46.</ref> == The emergence of legal restrictions on immigration in colonial Canada == During its earliest centuries, Canada and its colonial forebears had neither an official immigration policy, nor the means to control the movement of individuals at the border.<ref>Bon Tempo, Carl J. 2008.

Restrictions on freedom of movement took many forms. Some of the earliest restrictions on movement which were imposed by states were imposed on the ''internal'' movement of both nationals and non-nationals within each state's territory. In Europe such internal migration restrictions were mainly imposed for tax purposes,<ref name=":41" /> and in British North America, as discussed above, one of the principal reasons for such restrictions was the control of the aboriginal population through reserve and pass systems. Furthermore, even at this time, not all migrants were welcomed by Canadian society.

Eventually, a number of settlements succeeded and by the turn of the century, the Jewish population of Canada was approximately 17,000, almost ten times that of 1880.<ref name=":52" /> Then, from 1900 to 1921, a further 138,000 Jews immigrated to Canada, many of them refugees fleeing yet further pogroms in Czarist Russia and Eastern Europe.<ref name=":16">Janet Dench, "A Hundred Years of Immigration to Canada, 1900-1999: A Chronology Focusing on Refugees and Discrimination" (2000), online: ''Canadian Council for Refugees'' <https://ccrweb.ca/en/hundred-years-immigration-canada-1900-1999>.</ref> * Persecuted Doukhobors also began to arrive from Russia at this point, as well.<ref name=":16" /> Indigenous people from the United States also immigrated northward. For example, after the Battle at Little Bighorn in what is now the state of Montana in 1876, Sitting Bull’s Dakota (Sioux) forces killed American Lieutenant-Colonel George Armstrong Custer and 262 of his men. Afterwards, facing the full might of the United States army, Sitting Bull tried to negotiate peace, but rejected the Americans’ terms. Then, many Sioux began crossing the border into Canada, near Wood Mountain, SK (then part of the North-West Territories). North-West Mounted Police Inspector James Morrow Walsh met with Sitting Bull in 1877 and assured him protection from the US army in exchange for peaceful compliance of Canadian law. However, the welcome was far from hospitable. The Canadian government, fearful that the chief’s presence would incite intertribal warfare and eager to clear the Prairies for white settlement, refused Sitting Bull’s request for a reserve for his people. An ensuing lack of food gradually induced the Sioux to return to the United States to accept American promises of rations.<ref>Macewan, G. (2017). Sitting Bull. In ''The Canadian Encyclopedia''.

As Irving Abella and Petra Molnar write, xenophobia and anti-semitism permeated Canada and "there was little public support for, and much opposition to, the admission of refugees [to the end of the Second World War]".<ref name=":6" /> For example, in the 1930s Canada restricted the admission of European Jews who sought safe haven from antisemitism and the emergence of fascism in Germany, but welcomed Sudeten Germans from Czechoslovakia in search of refuge given that they were considered to be more "desirable" immigrants.<ref name=":20" /> Armenian refugees were also subject to Canada's exclusionary policies. The Ottoman Empire began the mass killing, relocation, and deportation of its Armenian population in 1915. This claimed more than 1 million lives and resulted in more than half a million displaced persons. While 80,000 Armenian refugees would receive sanctuary in France, and 23,000 in the United States, fewer than 1,300 were admitted to Canada.<ref>Ninette Kelley and Michael J. Trebilcock. ''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print. Page 205.</ref> Canada justified its restrictive resettlement policies by employing a narrow definition of who qualified for refugee protection (to the extent that it discussed the categorization whatsoever). For example, when Jewish organizations in Canada asked the Canadian government for permission to resettle Jewish refugees displaced in Europe, the government demurred, claiming that, since many had left Russia with the consent of the authorities, they could not be considered refugees.<ref>Ninette Kelley and Michael J. Trebilcock. ''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print.

In 1938, the US government brought together 30 countries for a conference on the subject of the worsening refugee situation in Europe. Canada was a reluctant participant, tarrying for months before accepting the US invitation to attend the Evian, France event.

For example, in its zeal to expel Communists, Canada removed persons who would be persecuted in their home countries.

Page 262.</ref> For example, between 1923 and 1930 close to 20,000 Mennonites from Russia were permitted to settle in Canada. As Kelley and Trebilcock set out the history, German-speaking Mennonite refugees from Russia came to Canada to escape hardship they were experiencing following the Russian revolution. Their refusal to take up arms during the revolution had alienated and angered both sides of the conflict, and Mennonites increasingly became the victims of brutal assaults and intimidation, which continued after the civil war ended. Throughout the 1920s, land expropriation, official intolerance of their religion, and threats of forcible relocation to Siberia prompted thousands to seek a safe haven elsewhere.<ref>Ninette Kelley and Michael J.

Sanctuary was provided to many persons of favoured ethnicities, principally the British, and was denied to others. At the beginning of the war, Canada began to allow for the admission of British children in danger overseas. The government agreed to the admission of 5,000 British children and their mothers and more than 4,500 British children and 1,000 mothers came to Canada. The movement was abruptly terminated in 1940 when two ships carrying children to Canada were torpedoed.<ref>Ninette Kelley and Michael J. Trebilcock. ''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print. Page 269.</ref> Entry for non-British persons was not facilitated in the same way. For example, a visible manifestation of the antisemitism which marked Canada's immigration and refugee policy at this time was the 1939 decision to deny admission to 930 Jewish refugees on the SS St. Louis seeking asylum from Nazi Germany. These refugees were instead sent back to what awaited them in Germany. When, later in the war, in 1943, Canada did announce that it intended to admit some Jewish refugees who had made their way to the Iberian peninsula, this is said to have "ignited a storm of protest from anti-refugee interests". Quebec opposition leader Maurice Duplessis held rallies in which he charged that that provincial and federal Liberals were set to allow the "International Zionist Brotherhood" to, in his words, settle 100,000 Jewish refugees in Quebec in return for election financing.<ref name=":27">Valerie Knowles, ''Strangers at Our Gates: Canadian Immigration and Immigration Policy, 1540-2015'', March 2016, {{#isbn:978-1-45973-285-8}}, Dundurn Press: Toronto, p. 150.</ref> Ultimately, Canada admitted fewer than 5,000 Jewish refugees during the Second World War, something Trebilcock and Kelley call one of the worst records of any democracy in providing assistance to the persecuted Jews of Europe.<ref>Ninette Kelley and Michael J.

The majority were relocated in the interior of British Columbia, often in detention camps in isolated ghost towns. Japanese Canadians were forced to remain in these detention camps until the end of the war. Then, after the conclusion of hostilities, about 4,000 would surrender to pressure and leave Canada for Japan under the federal government's "repatriation" scheme. Of these, more than half were Canadian-born and two-thirds were Canadian citizens.<ref name=":28" /> During the war, the British government also transported 2,500 "enemy aliens" to Canada. For the most part, these were German and Austrian nationals, many of them highly educated Jews, who had been living in Great Britain when the war erupted. Valerie Knowles describes their reception in Canada as follows:<blockquote>The Canadian government agreed to receive these male civilian internees in the belief that it would be assisting hard-pressed Britain by accepting custody of a number of "potentially dangerous enemy aliens". Canadian authorities were therefore astonished to see a large assortment of teenage boys, university students, priests, and rabbis step ashore at Quebec. Despite their misgivings, however, the Canadians proceeded to place all in camps that resembled maximum security prisons. And it was here that scientists, theologians, musicians, teachers, artists, and writers, among others, would be forced to bide their time for months to come.<ref name=":27" /></blockquote>Knowles notes that, fortunately for these prisoners, the British government soon realized that it had done a possibly grave injustice to many of the internees and initiated steps to have them released. In 1945, Canada reclassified these one-time prisoners as "Interned Refugees (Friendly Aliens) from the United Kingdom" and invited them to become Canadian citizens. 972 chose to do so.<ref>Valerie Knowles, ''Strangers at Our Gates: Canadian Immigration and Immigration Policy, 1540-2015'', March 2016, {{#isbn:978-1-45973-285-8}}, Dundurn Press: Toronto, p. 151.</ref> While Canada admitted a limited number of refugees during WWII, the number of refugees and displaced persons in other countries at this point was high: globally 175 million people—approximately 8 percent of the world population—were displaced in the aftermath of World War II.<ref>Fransen, S., & Haas, H.

The organization was faced with large numbers of displaced persons who were reluctant to return to countries where communist parties were taking a firm hold. Many Polish, Ukrainian, and Baltic persons were thus residing in camps, asking to be referred to a non-communist country, as opposed to their country of citizenship. Soviet officials objected to any willingness to countenance such demands.

Previously, international organizations had dealt only with specific groups of refugees, such as Russian or German refugees, and, in Gil Loescher's words, governments had never attempted to formulate a general definition of the term 'refugee'. For the first time, therefore, with the establishment of the IRO, the international community was making refugee eligibility dependent on the individual rather than group membership and accepted the individual's right to flee from political persecution to a safe country.<ref name=":58" /> Alan Nash situates this within the politics of the time, noting that the West was seeking to legitimate its refusal to repatriate by developing the principle of ''non-refoulement'', which had heretofore featured little in previous refugee agreements by using an approach to managing refugees that extended relief to those who were unable or unwilling to adapt to the ideologies of their own countries and for whom continued residence there was intolerable.<ref name=":86" /> To achieve its mandate, the IRO had its own specialized staff, a fleet of more than 40 ships, and, most importantly, the political and economic support of the developed world. With the opening up of this IRO resettlement program, the number of repatriations to Eastern Europe was reduced to a small trickle and the IRO began operations that would relocate more than 1 million Europeans to the Americas, Israel, Southern Africa, and Oceania.<ref>Hathaway, James C.

This contrasted with earlier definitions that had generally applied to all nationals of a particular state or persons of a particular ethnic group from that state, and in so doing required the asylum seeker to provide a more personalized account of their experiences as well as the general situation in the country of origin.

Details of the IABs and their history follow below. That said, Canada's overall immigration laws continued to restrict persons for reasons of race, class, and health, and "national security" concerns related to the fear of communism, which were used to reject more than 29,000 applications to enter Canada between 1946 and 1958.<ref name=":17" /> == Non-discrimination measures == The 1952 Immigration Act empowered Cabinet to limit the admission of migrants by reason of a large number of grounds that allowed for Canada's discriminatory policies, including:<blockquote>(i) nationality, citizenship, ethnic group, occupation, class or geographical area of origin, (ii) peculiar customs, habits, modes of life or methods of holding property, (iii) unsuitability having regard to the climatic, economic, social, industrial, educational, labour, health or other conditions or requirements existing ... in Canada ... or (iv) probable inability to become readily assimilated or to assume the duties and responsibilities of Canadian citizenship ...<ref>Kelley, Ninette, and Michael J.

Page 330.</ref></blockquote>Furthermore, to this point Canada's immigration service had been plagued by widespread corruption. Among applicants, the Deputy Minister Keenleyside noted, there was a widespread belief that "even the simplest and most proper requests had to be lubricated with monetary or more personal favours."<ref>Reginald Whitaker, ''Double Standard: The Secret History of Canadian Immigration'', 1987, Toronto: Lester and Orpen Denys Ltd., at page 27.</ref> By the 1960s, values were changing across Canada, and around the world, and Canada’s racially-based, Eurocentric approach to immigration and refugee policy was becoming less and less aligned with how the country both viewed itself and wished itself to be seen. Canada’s unofficial ban on black immigrants was costing it diplomatic legitimacy with newly independent former colonies and, by 1961, Britain had begun to pressure Canada to change its policies, as it had an open door to immigrants, such as those from the West Indies, that were barred entry into Canada.<ref>Kelley, Ninette, and Michael J. Trebilcock. ''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print.

With this revision, historian Valerie Knowles states that the last vestige of discrimination which remained in the immigration regulations was a provision that allowed immigrants from Europe and the Americas to sponsor a wider range of relatives, something that was inserted at the last moment because of a fear that there would be an influx of sponsorships by persons from India.<ref>Valerie Knowles, ''Strangers at Our Gates: Canadian Immigration and Immigration Policy, 1540-2015'', March 2016, {{#isbn:978-1-45973-285-8}}, Dundurn Press: Toronto, p. 187.</ref> In 1965, Canada ratified the four Geneva Conventions which form the basis of international humanitarian law,<ref>Humanrightscommitments.ca, ''Geneva Conventions and Protocols'', <http://humanrightscommitments.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Geneva-Conventions.pdf> (Accessed September 26, 2021).</ref> including the 1949 ''Geneva Convention Relating to the Protection of Individuals in Times of War'' which includes a provision that refugees should not be considered enemy aliens if they had formerly had the nationality of an enemy power.<ref>Haddad, E.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. doi:10.1017/CBO9780511491351, page 78.</ref> Then, in 1966 Lester B. Pearson's government created the ''Department of Manpower and Immigration'' and mandated it with the responsibility of processing refugees without “discrimination by race, country or religion”.<ref name=":2" /> That department set to work and in 1967 all vestiges of discrimination were removed from the immigration regulations, if not the statutes themselves, and the government implemented its much-vaunted 'points system' in the regulations to guide the selection of many categories of immigrants.<ref name=":26" /> That said, Canada's immigration laws continued to restrict persons who were "undesirable", which was used as a basis for screening prospective immigrants for "national security" concerns related to feared communist subversion.<ref>Reginald Whitaker, ''Double Standard: The Secret History of Canadian Immigration'', 1987, Toronto: Lester and Orpen Denys Ltd., at page 33.</ref> This was used to reject more than 29,000 applications to enter Canada between 1946 and 1958.<ref name=":17" /> A broader suite of policies to support migrants began to the implemented at this time. The Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP) was established in 1957 to provide temporary health-care coverage to people in refugee-like situations who were admitted permanently to Canada. In the absence of other publicly-funded health insurance plans, the Government used federal spending power to establish a program to offer health-care benefits during the period in which these displaced foreign nationals lacked sufficient resources to pay for their medical expenses, thereby bridging a gap in health-care coverage between arrival and employment. == Immigration Appeal Boards == Immigration Appeal Boards, which could hear appeals from decisions to deport aliens, became a feature of the ''Immigration Act'' in 1952. Each board would consist of three staff members from the immigration department selected by the executive on an ''ad hoc'' basis. The ability to have recourse to an immigration appeal board was, from the time of their creation, limited: all appeals were to be heard by the Minister unless, at the Minister's discretion, the appeal was directed to an IAB.<ref name=":67">''An Act respecting Immigration'', SC 1952, c 42, s 31.</ref> Furthermore, the Minister could also reverse any decision of an IAB.<ref name=":68">Ninette Kelley and Michael J. Trebilcock. ''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print.

''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print. Page 338.</ref> In this way, while immigration to Canada continued to be considered a privilege, and not a right, basic due process protections were coming to be seen as properly extended to aliens. Specifically, as Trebilcock and Kelley note, it was coming to be accepted that the rules governing admission or deportation of aliens should be reasonably well specified and transparent, and that deportation decisions should generally be open to challenge before a neutral tribunal.<ref>Kelley, Ninette, and Michael J. Trebilcock. ''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print. Page 351.</ref> That said, at this point, the Immigration Appeal Boards played what Trebilcock and Kelley describe as “a very minor role” in immigration decisions because their jurisdiction was limited to questions of law, and in view of the large discretionary powers granted to the immigration department, errors of law were quite rare.<ref>Kelley, Ninette, and Michael J. Trebilcock. ''The Making of the Mosaic: A History of Canadian Immigration Policy''. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2010 (Second Edition). Print. Page 349.</ref> Furthermore, given that the boards were controlled by immigration officials, they could be considered neither neutral nor independent. In March 1967, the ''Immigration Appeal Board Act'' changed this. This Act emerged from what was called the Sedgwick Report, drawn up by Joseph Sedgwick, Q.C., a one-man board of inquiry which had been commissioned by the government to study a series of highly controversial deportations. In June 1964, Sedgwick was asked by the Federal Government to inquire into serious allegations made in the House of Commons and elsewhere that certain aliens have been unlawfully detained and deprived of access to counsel.<ref>Statistics Canada, Immigration Policy and Administration, 223, <https://www66.statcan.gc.ca/eng/1966/196602510223_p.%20223.pdf> (Accessed October 21, 2024).</ref> The principal features of the newly reconstituted Board following the passage of the 1967 ''Immigration Appeal Board Act'' were: * <u>Independence:</u> Chief among the recommendations was the establishment of a completely independent Immigration Appeal Board.<ref>Valerie Knowles, ''Strangers at Our Gates: Canadian Immigration and Immigration Policy, 1540-2015'', March 2016, {{#isbn:978-1-45973-285-8}}, Dundurn Press: Toronto, p. 191-192.</ref> The Board was no longer controlled by immigration officials, but was instead a quasi-judicial entity independent of the Department of Manpower and Immigration.

However, even prior to this time, any person who had been refused landing and ordered deported could appeal to the IAB, and the Board could order that person to be landed. Because the Board had a flexible and generous compassionate jurisdiction, in Plaut's view, refugees were "to a large extent" accommodated under the IAB's procedures, and "there was therefore no real need for a specific refugee determination process".<ref name=":83" /> * <u>Final authority over deportation decisions:</u> Under the 1952 ''Immigration Act'', the IAB consisted of Immigration Branch officials who made recommendations to the Minister, which the Minister could accept or reject at their discretion. Decisions of the newly reconstituted IAB were instead final (subject only to judicial review, as set out below).<ref name=":55" /> * <u>Leave requirement for judicial review:</u> IAB decisions were final, subject to an appeal, with leave, to the Supreme Court of Canada on questions of law, including jurisdiction.<ref name=":54" /> As commentators have noted, these leave requirements have effectively served to "insulate" such administrative decisions from judicial review.<ref>Molly Joeck, ''Canadian Exclusion Jurisprudence post-Febles'', International Journal of Refugee Law, 17 September 2021; Advance Article, https://doi.org/10.1093/ijrl/eeab034, page 17.</ref> The 1967 changes to the Immigration Appeal Board are said to have proceduralized and judicialized immigration policy to an unprecedented degree and to have presaged calls for similar due process protections in the determination of refugee claims.<ref>Kelley, Ninette, and Michael J.

Instead, only permanent residents, valid visa holders, and persons claiming to be refugees or Canadian citizens were given a right of appeal.<ref name=":56" /> In order to clear the backlog, the government also instituted a one-time amnesty program, which more than 39,000 people availed themselves of, including a significant number of US draft dodgers.<ref>Valerie Knowles, ''Strangers at Our Gates: Canadian Immigration and Immigration Policy, 1540-2015'', March 2016, {{#isbn:978-1-45973-285-8}}, Dundurn Press: Toronto, p. 202-203.</ref> == Negotiation of the 1967 Refugee Protocol == The 1951 Convention was seen by many as a Convention that reflected European experience - and by its terms was limited to those fleeing persecution ‘as a result of events occurring before 1 January 1951'. In the 1950s, refugees were emerging in other parts of the world in increasing numbers. In the 1950s, for example, anti-communist and nationalist Chinese refugees fled to Hong Kong in large numbers. In the 1960s, decolonization in Africa saw the scale of the refugee phenomenon there grow. Estimates put the total refugee population of Africa at 400,000 in 1964, a figure that had reached one million by the end of the decade.<ref>Haddad, E. (2008).

UNHCR responded in a number of ways. In 1957 it developed what was called its ‘good offices’ mandate, which allowed the organization to bypass the geographical limitations of the Geneva Convention and assist in, ''inter alia'', Hong Kong.<ref name=":85" /> In the mid to late 1960s, negotiations started to expand the temporal and geographic scope of the 1951 ''Refugee Convention''. The Organization of African Unity's move to negotiate a regional refugee convention for Africa was feared by the UNHCR as something that could limit its authority and undermine the (supposedly) universal regime it shepherded.<ref>Haddad, E.

As articulated by the UNHCR, the motivation behind this initiative was to ensure that the ''de facto'' racial distinctions built into the 1951 Convention yielded to a growing anti-discrimination postcolonial zeitgeist:<blockquote>The Convention had led to an unfortunate discrimination among the different groups of refugees, in particular with regard to the African refugees. Such discrimination conflicted with the Statute of his Office and was contrary to the universal spirit of the Convention itself.<ref>Julia Morris, ''The Value of Refugees: UNHCR and the Growth of the Global Refugee Industry'', Journal of Refugee Studies, 11 January 2021, https://doi-org.ezproxy.library.yorku.ca/10.1093/jrs/feaa135 at page 14.</ref></blockquote>The resultant protocol was signed at New York in January 1967. It entered into force that October. The changes that the protocol made to the 1951 Refuge Convention were straightforward: extending the territorial and temporal scope of the Refugee Convention to cover refugees outside of Europe and those displaced for newly emerging reasons.<ref>Savitri Taylor, Klaus Neumann, ''Australia and the Abortive Convention on Territorial Asylum: A Case Study of a Cul de Sac in International Refugee and Human Rights Law'', International Journal of Refugee Law, eeaa006, [https://doi-org.peacepalace.idm.oclc.org/10.1093/ijrl/eeaa006 <https://doi-org.peacepalace.idm.oclc.org/10.1093/ijrl/eeaa006]>, page 4.</ref> Canada was a laggard in signing the instrument.

Further, the Paper proposed both the introduction of a refugee determination process within Canada’s borders, as well as the ratification of the 1951 UN Refugee Convention. As immigration official E.P. Beasley noted in 1966, in reference to the need for a clear refugee policy, in his view Canada had “become a country of first asylum,” and, thus, “the time may have come to set forth in legislation machinery and a methodology for determining these individual cases more precisely and more fairly.”<ref name=":63">Clare Glassco, ''Before the Sun Comes Up: The Making of Canadian Refugee Policy amidst the Refugee Crisis in Southeast Asia, 1975-1980'', April 1, 2020 <https://heartsoffreedom.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Revised-FINAL-April-3-Before-the-Sun-Comes-Up.pdf> (Accessed April 17, 2020), page 10 of the document.</ref> The concept of a "first country of asylum" in this context refers to a situation where Canada is the first country that grants protection to an individual, as opposed to resettling individuals who have already found temporary protection elsewhere.<ref>UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), ''Global Consultations on International Protection/Third Track: Asylum Processes (Fair and Efficient Asylum Procedures)'', 31 May 2001, EC/GC/01/12, available at: https://www.refworld.org/docid/3b36f2fca.html [accessed 6 May 2020], paras. 10-11.</ref> An overall 'concept of control' had arguably traditionally governed Canada's refugee admission policies, a concept designed to control the 'quality' of those admitted, to ensure refugee selection overseas, and to prevent uncontrolled movement into Canada.<ref name=":75">Alan Nash, ''International Refugee Pressures and the Canadian Public Policy Response'', Discussion Paper, January 1989, Studies in Social Policy, page x.</ref> At this time, Canada was increasingly seeing itself as a country of first asylum as Cold War crises caused thousands to seek safe haven in the West.<ref name=":20" /> That said, reaction to the White Paper was sharply negative,<ref name=":66" /> which accounts for why it took a further three years to make significant reforms to the immigration regime.

In 1973 the Canadian government established its first formal administrative structure to deal with refugee claimants. An interdepartmental committee comprised of representatives from the Departments of External Affairs and Manpower and Immigration met to assess individual claims and forward their recommendations to the Minister of Manpower and Immigration who had the authority to decide whether a refugee claimant could remain in Canada or would be deported.<ref name=":20" /> Furthermore, the ''Immigration Appeal Board Act'' was amended that year to empower the Board to quash a deportation order against a person it determined to be a Convention refugee<ref name=":42" /> and to also grant special relief in other cases because the claimant would suffer undue hardship or where humanitarian and compassionate considerations could be invoked.<ref name=":78">Alan Nash, ''International Refugee Pressures and the Canadian Public Policy Response'', Discussion Paper, January 1989, Studies in Social Policy, page 39.

If they were found to be inadmissible (as was usually the case), then they would be sent to an immigration inquiry for a determination about whether they should be removed from the country. It was at this point that the individual could request refugee status, in which case the removal order was stayed and the person was brought before a senior immigration officer for an interview regarding the substance of the refugee claim. The senior immigration officer then sent the transcript of the interview to the RSAC.

Other persons physically present in Canada, but with some form of (temporary) status had no right to make a claim or have it considered under the refugee claim process. This restriction led to what Rabbi Gunther Plaut termed an "administrative nightmare". In an effort to afford persons legally in Canada the benefits of the refugee status determination process, the Immigration Ministry instituted an extra-legal procedure known as the "in-status" claim. The claimant was considered in the same fashion as a person who made a claim while subject to an inquiry into their immigration status. There were problems with this. First, it lacked finality: if refused, the person could then make a second claim and undergo the whole process provided by the legislation anew. Furthermore, "in-status" claimants were ineligible for employment authorizations while they waited for their claim to be processed, their eligibility to work depending instead on the working permissions (or lack thereof) accorded to them by their pre-existing immigration status in Canada.<ref>W.

EIC could no longer devise humanitarian resettlement programs or any other program by administrative fiat as had been permitted when Immigration Act 1952 governed immigration to Canada. The 1976 Act created an admissible class for Convention refugees, and through section 6(2) it provided regulation-making authority for other humanitarian classes that could be designated. On proclamation of the Act on 1 April 1978, however, no designations had taken place but three resettlement programs were underway, including Eastern Europeans, Chile/Argentina, and Indochinese. Operational difficulties cropped up almost immediately. Having to test the Convention eligibility of each Vietnamese applicant prior to determining admissibility was very cumbersome and sharply reduced productivity. Jewish migrants from the Soviet Union refused to advance claims to refugee status because they considered the term itself objectionable. Chileans and Argentinians were clearly not Convention refugees since they were still in their own countries. To provide continuity for the programs that had been authorized before the passage of the new Act, EIC devised an Order in Council in November that designated three additional humanitarian classes pursuant to section 6(2). The self-exiled class covered Soviet Jews and other Eastern Europeans; the Indochinese designated class did away with the need to test each applicant for Convention eligibility; and the Latin American designated class (LADC) applied to persecuted Chileans and Argentinians still resident in their own countries, including those in prison.<ref>Raphael Girard, Canadian Immigration Historical Society, CIHS Bulletin Issue #110, September 2024, ISSN 1485-8460, <<nowiki>https://cihs-shic.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Bulletin-110-2024-09.pdf</nowiki>>, page 3.</ref> To address demands from civil society to have more of a role in refugee sponsorship, and criticism about government refugee sponsorship decisions, in 1978 Canada established a Private Sponsorship Program through which citizens could assist fully or partially in privately sponsoring new refugees.<ref>Martine Panzica, ''A Difficult Line To Walk: NGO and LGBTQ+ Refugee Experiences with Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in Canada,'' MA Thesis, August 2020, <https://dalspace.library.dal.ca/bitstream/handle/10222/79707/Panzica-Martine-MA-IDS-August-2020.pdf?sequence=5> (Accessed August 31, 2020), page 21.</ref> To date more than 300,000 refugees have come to Canada through this program.<ref>See [[Canadian Refugee Procedure/Principles for the interpretation of refugee procedure#Responsibility sharing and burden sharing between states are fundamental principles of the Refugee Convention]].</ref> == Founding of the Immigration and Refugee Board == The background to the creation of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada lay in concerns about the rigour, capacity, independence, and fairness of the pre-existing refugee status determination system in the 1980s. To begin with, throughout the 1980s there were concerns about the rigour of Canada's asylum system and about potential abuse of the system. In the words of Deborah Anker, in the early 1980s the government undertook to amend what it painted as a fragile asylum system being taken advantage of by ‘illegitimate’ immigrants.<ref name=":50">The Oxford Handbook of International Refugee Law edited by Costello, Cathryn; Foster, Michelle; McAdam, Jane (3rd June 2021), Part III, Ch.16, page 302.</ref> One of the formative events in the creation of the IRB was the perceived crisis situation which emerged in the late 1980s when the federal government recalled Parliament for an emergency session to amend the ''Immigration Act'' after 174 Sikh persons arrived by lifeboat near the fishing village of Charlesville, Nova Scotia.<ref name=":20" /> At that time, the Canadian Employment and Immigration Advisory Council reported that most business and labour leaders felt the government had "lost control of the border".<ref>Shauna Labman, ''Crossing Law’s Border: Canada’s Refugee Resettlement Program,'' 2019, UBC Press: Vancouver, page 41.</ref> Such concerns about the integrity of the system were exemplified by the Reform Party platform in the 1980s which invoked what has been labelled "inflammatory language" about "immigration abuses, bogus refugees, [and] improper selection of immigrants".<ref name=":8">Gaucher, M.

The granting of refugee status could be seen to make a statement about the state of origin, and it was argued that Canada had a history of restricting the grant of refugee status on political grounds, focusing it in particular on Communist states and demonstrating a reluctance to recognize refugees from newly emerging post-Colonial states, lest such grants of refugee protection be perceived as an admission that western powers' policies and actions had been the cause of refugee flows.<ref>Haddad, E.

To that point, the system had distinguished between "in status" and "out-of-status" persons, contemplating refugee claims only for those individuals under inquiry for having violated the ''Immigration Act''.<ref>R. G. L. Fairweather, ''Canada's New Refugee Determination System'', 27 CAN. Y.B.

M.E.I.'', [1985] 1 F.C. 925 (F.C.T.D.).</ref> Furthermore, another 1985 decision, ''Singh v. Minister of Employment and Immigration'', established that where the credibility of a claimant is at stake, an oral hearing before the then-''Immigration Appeal Board'' was required. In so ruling, the Supreme Court of Canada set aside the previous system under which an application for an oral hearing had to be made.<ref>David Matas, Fairness in Refugee Determination, 1989 18-1 ''Manitoba Law Journal'' 71, 1989 CanLIIDocs 150, <https://canlii.ca/t/spb3>, retrieved on 2021-01-22, page 92.</ref> The ''Singh'' decision is often seen as a watershed that enforced ''Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms'' protections for migrants on arrival on Canadian soil, thereby requiring an overhaul of the refugee determination process to ensure that fair oral hearings started to be offered as a matter of course.<ref name=":4" /> One immediate response to the ''Singh'' decision was to expand access to oral hearings and to increase the capacity of the system in order to facilitate such access. In 1985, Bill C-55 modified the IAB to ensure that all refugees had the opportunity to have an oral hearing during their appeal and the bill increased the number of IAB members from eighteen up to fifty.<ref>UNHCR.ca, ''Seven Decades of Refugee Protection in Canada:1950-2020'', <https://www.unhcr.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Seven-Decades-of-Refugee-Protection-In-Canada-December-14-2020.pdf> (accessed June 13, 2021), page 13.</ref> To address this constellation of challenges, the Canadian governments of the day commissioned a series of major studies, principally the 1981 Task Force on Immigration Practices and Procedures, the 1981 McDonald Royal Commission of Inquiry Concerning Certain Activities of the RCMP which reviewed the security screening process in immigration, the 1983 Robinson Report entitled ''Illegal Migrants in Canada'', the 1984 Ratushny Report entitled ''A New Refugee Status Determination Process for Canada'', the 1984 Deschênes Commission of Inquiry on War Criminals in Canada, and the 1985 report by Rabbi Gunther Plaut entitled ''Refugee Determination in Canada''. Each of these reports recommend approaches for a new asylum determination system that would address both the right to be heard, and balance the competing interests of fairness and efficiency.<ref name=":4" /> The 1981 Task Force provided a report entitled "The Refugee Status Determination Process" which made three main recommendations: 1) the RSAC should be independent of immigration and external policy considerations, 2) the use of the Convention refugee definition should observe the spirit as well as the letter of the law, and 3) claimant should be given an oral hearing as part of the preliminary determination stage. Finally, the report also recommended that the ''Immigration Act'' "be amended to replace the present determination process with a central tribunal which would hear and determine refugee claims."<ref name=":79">Alan Nash, ''International Refugee Pressures and the Canadian Public Policy Response'', Discussion Paper, January 1989, Studies in Social Policy, page 45.</ref> The government took some immediate steps in response to the 1981 Task Force report. For example, with respect to the recommendation that the spirit of the Convention refugee definition be observed, the Minister issued new guidelines which instituted that the benefit of the doubt be given to claimants.<ref name=":79">Alan Nash, ''International Refugee Pressures and the Canadian Public Policy Response'', Discussion Paper, January 1989, Studies in Social Policy, page 45.</ref> The government also took other steps to increase the fairness of the system for refugee claimants, including replacing job-specific employment documents with generic authorizations in 1985<ref name=":79" /> and dropping the requirement for an inquiry to be convened before a clamant would qualify for employment authorization - thereby eliminating an obstacle that had resulted in waits of up to eight months for employment authorization.<ref>Alan Nash, ''International Refugee Pressures and the Canadian Public Policy Response'', Discussion Paper, January 1989, Studies in Social Policy, pages 47 and 52.</ref> What ultimately emerged from all of these reports, events, and related legislative machinations of the 1980s was a new asylum system centred around a tribunal model. The relevant legislation, Bill C-55, or the ''Refugee Reform Act'', was introduced in the House of Commons in 1986. This bill was supplemented by Bill C-84, the ''Refugee Deterrents and Detention Act.'' This latter, more restrictive piece of legislation, responded concerns about ships arriving on Canada's coast, criminality, and people smuggling.<ref>David Matas with Ilana Simon, ''Closing the Doors: The Failure of Refugee Protection'', Summerhill Press Ltd., Toronto, 1989, {{#isbn:0-920197-81-7}}, page 224.</ref> There was lengthy debate about these bills at an emergency session of Parliament.<ref>Reginald Whitaker, ''Double Standard: The Secret History of Canadian Immigration'', 1987, Toronto: Lester and Orpen Denys Ltd., at page 9.</ref> The Senate conducted an extensive inquiry into Bill C-84, and rejected the bill twice.<ref>Alan Nash, ''International Refugee Pressures and the Canadian Public Policy Response'', Discussion Paper, January 1989, Studies in Social Policy, page 62.</ref> Ultimately, after a new Immigration Minister agreed to additional amendments, the two bills were passed by the House of Commons and the Senate in 1988 and were given royal assent on July 21 of that year.<ref>Alan Nash, ''International Refugee Pressures and the Canadian Public Policy Response'', Discussion Paper, January 1989, Studies in Social Policy, page 1.</ref> Features and aspects of the new system included: * <u>Creation of an independent tribunal:</u> The Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada came into existence as an independent administrative tribunal on January 1, 1989 with 115 members.<ref>David Matas with Ilana Simon, ''Closing the Doors: The Failure of Refugee Protection'', Summerhill Press Ltd., Toronto, 1989, {{#isbn:0-920197-81-7}}, page 170.</ref> At that time, the IRB consisted of two divisions: the Convention Refugee Determination Division and the Immigration Appeal Division, which replaced the previous Immigration Appeal Board. Gordon Fairweather, a former Attorney General of New Brunswick and the first Chief Commissioner of the Canadian Human Rights Commission, was appointed as the first Chairman of the IRB.<ref name=":20" /> As the respective names imply, one of the biggest changes was the move from a Refugee Status ''Advisory Committee'' which had left ultimate decision-making in the hands of the Minister it advised, to a fully independent tribunal.<ref>W.

If either of the two panel members were persuaded, then the claim would be heard at a full hearing before the CRDD. The Minister was represented at such proceedings by a case presenting officer (CPO). In port-of-entry cases, “designated counsel” was provided for refugee claimants at first-level hearings, at the expense of the Minister, for the purpose of avoiding delay in processing claims.

If, on review, a credible basis for the refugee claim was recommended, the case proceeded to a special panel composed of an adjudicator and a member of the CRDD. If those panels decided favourably on the recommendation for credible basis, the claimants were able to apply for permanent residence without the necessity for a further hearing. * Group II: People who arrived in Canada between May 1986 and February 1987 and who were issued Minister's permits. * Group III: People whose immigration inquiries were adjourned to have their claims examined under oath but these examinations were not conducted. * Group IV: People whose inquires were not opened or were not yet adjourned to have their claims examined. Claimants from Group I found to have no credible basis for their claim and those from Groups II-IV were interviewed at what were called Canada Immigration Centres. If those claimants could demonstrate sufficient humanitarian and compassionate reasons allowing them to remain in Canada, such as family class links, no further review was necessary and the claimants could apply for permanent residence.<ref name=":91">Employment and Immigration Canada, ''The backlog clearance process: Refugee claims made in Canada before January 1, 1989'' (pamphlet), 1989, document IM 059/12/89, Cat.

For example, the reasons offered for decisions by the Refugee Status Advisory Committee in the 1980s were scant; as refugee lawyer David Matas describes it, the reasons often consisted of "merely a few sentences" which "seldom related the findings of fact on which their conclusions were based".<ref>David Matas, Fairness in Refugee Determination, 1989 18-1 ''Manitoba Law Journal'' 71, 1989 CanLIIDocs 150, <https://canlii.ca/t/spb3>, retrieved on 2021-01-22, page 100 (quote lightly edited to change tense).</ref> In short, he states, what were offered were conclusions, as opposed to reasons. The reasons offered by the IRB would generally be more fulsome. This transition was consistent with international trends at the time - for example, it was not until 1984 that the Home Secretary in the UK was even required to give reasons for an asylum decision.<ref>Emma Borland, ''Temporal pillars of fairness: reflections on the UK's asylum adjudication regime from an original refugee-centred position'', PhD Thesis, 2020, Cardiff University, <<nowiki>https://orca.cardiff.ac.uk/132879/</nowiki>> (Accessed June 30 2021), page 67.</ref> In this way, as the juridification of the system emphasized the importance of individuals retaining counsel, it is no coincidence that it was in 1986 that a group of immigration consultants assembled to form the immigration industry association in Canada, the Association of Immigration Counsel of Canada.<ref name=":66" /> From 1978, immigration legislation permitted regulations to be made with respect to the licensing of immigration consultants, however that had not been done. Questions that arose about the legality of the immigration consultant regime were put to rest in the 1990s with legal proceedings that the Law Society of British Columbia brought against Jaswant Singh Mangat, who ran Westcoast Immigration Consultants Ltd., providing representation for a fee before the Immigration and Refugee Board. After a BC judge issued an injunction against these activities on the basis that Mangat was not called to the bar in British Columbia, his became a test case, ultimately resolving in 2001 when the Supreme Court of Canada concluded that non-lawyer immigration consultants were in fact legal and authorized by the ''Immigration Act''.<ref name=":66" /> At this time there was no system regulating immigration consultants and there was nothing in Canadian law which would prohibit an unlicensed individual from charging a fee to represent a client in an immigration matter.<ref name=":66" /> This would not arrive until after 2002. With the end of the Cold War, and this juridification of the refugee system, the nature of who was recognized as a refugee began to shift - the concept went from being primarily about flight from Communism to a broader human rights-based conception of who was entitled to protection. Between the 1950s and the 1970s, argued the refugee scholar Gil Loescher, "recognizing persecution and the identifying perpetrators caused no headaches and the grant of asylum was generally used to reaffirm the failures of Communism and the benevolence of the West."<ref name=":85" /> The newfound IRB began to interpret the ''Refugee Convention'' in a way that was characterized as "expansive" and "progressive". In 1991, Canada became one of the first countries in the world to recognize sexual orientation-related persecution as a basis for claiming asylum.<ref>Molnar, Petra. "LGBTQ+ Refugees in Canada".

These progressive interpretations of Canada's refugee obligations were influenced by Canada's human rights obligations and international human rights procedures that refugee claimants may access. The Government of Canada ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1991. This supplemented earlier instruments that Canada had ratified, including the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the International Covenant on Social, Economic and Cultural Rights. Claimants today can bring individual complaints to seven UN treaty bodies established pursuant to such treaties, as well as to the special procedures established by the UN Human Rights Council, in particular, the Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants. The Committee against Torture is by far the most solicited UN treaty body and between 80 per cent and 90 per cent of all individual complaints submitted thereto concern alleged violations of the principle of ''non-refoulement'' enshrined in Article 3 of the Convention.<ref>Chetail, V.

Bill C-86, passed by the Senate in December 1992, was a response to this influx of claimants. The bill was perceived to be primarily concerned with boosting the system's efficiency. It did this in a number of ways: * First was by eliminating a screening system for claims at the IRB and transferring authority for determining whether an applicant was eligible to claim refugee status from the Board to senior immigration officers at the immigration department.<ref>Valerie Knowles, ''Strangers at Our Gates: Canadian Immigration and Immigration Policy, 1540-2015'', March 2016, {{#isbn:978-1-45973-285-8}}, Dundurn Press: Toronto, p. 240.</ref> In the name of efficiency, Bill C-86 transferred the eligibility determination step to the department and abandoned the screening process designed to eliminate claims with “no credible basis”.<ref>Canadian Council for Refugees, ''The challenge of fair and effective refugee determination,'' 23 July 2009 <https://ccrweb.ca/files/fairdetermination.pdf> (Accessed April 24, 2020).</ref> When the ''Immigration Act'' was amended to eliminate the two-stage screening process, a new test for determining that claims have no credible basis was added to the statute, but it assumed a different function: instead of screening out claims at a preliminary stage, it served to restrict the post-determination rights of unsuccessful claimants whose claims were found not to be supported by any credible evidence.<ref>''Rahaman v.

As part of the expedited process, an RHO would interview the claimant and make a recommendation to a CRDD member as to whether the claim should be accepted without a hearing or whether a hearing was needed. In 1993, between 25 and 30 per cent of all claims were processed through this expedited process. See: [[Canadian Refugee Procedure/RPD Rule 23 - Allowing a Claim Without a Hearing#What is the history of the Board's processes to accept claims without a hearing?]]. * The GIC was given the power to designate, from among the full-time members of the Refugee Division, members to be coordinating members (CMs) at the ratio of one CM for every fifteen members of the Refugee Division. * Changes were also made to the process for seeking judicial review of the Board's decisions. From the time that the IRB had been created, panels of the Federal Court of Appeal had been conducting the judicial reviews, where they granted leave. February 1992 reforms to the ''Federal Courts Act'' transferred judicial review jurisdiction over credible basis decisions to the Federal Court Trial Division.<ref>Mary C Hurley, Principles, Practices, Fragile Promises: Judicial Review of Refugee Determination Decisions Before the Federal Court of Canada, 1996 41-2 ''McGill Law Journal'' 317, 1996 CanLIIDocs 50, <https://canlii.ca/t/2bhf>, retrieved on 2021-06-25 at page 334.</ref> In 1993, amendments to the ''Immigration Act'' came into force which vested single judges of the Trial Division with original judicial review jurisdiction over all decisions of the Convention Refugee Determination Division.<ref>These amendments had been passed by Parliament in 1990, but took several years to be brought into force.

New IRB Rules of Practice were also made at this time, the ''Convention Refugee Determination Division Rules'' SOR/93-45. In 1994, as a concession to pragmatism, the government decided not to return certain refused refugee claimants to their countries of origin, particularly certain claimants from China. It did this by introducing the Deferred Removal Orders Class (DROC), which allowed applications for landing from refused refugee claimants who had not been removed after three years, subject to certain conditions. The Class was particularly aimed at resolving the situation of some 4,500 Chinese claimants waiting in limbo.<ref name=":66" /> In this way, the initiative was a compromise: providing a sort of amnesty for the existing backlog of claimants, who had waited while deportations to China were suspended following the Tiananmen Square massacre, while also announcing that deportations of new refused claimants would recommence. Later, Canada also introduced special measures to address the situations of claimants who were not being recognized through regular procedures. In January 1997 the government introduced the Undocumented Convention Refugees in Canada Class (UCRCC), which offered a means for some refugees from Somalia and Afghanistan who were unable to satisfactorily establish their identity to become permanent residents, but imposing a five year wait from the date of their refugee determination.<ref name=":16" /> Moreover, the position of the Refugee Hearing Officer continued to be seen as an important part of the efficiency and integrity of the system. This position assisted CRDD Members by conducting research and being responsible for questioning during hearings. In 1995, the position was renamed to be called a Refugee Claim Officer.<ref name=":45">David Vinokur, ''30 Years of Changes at the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada'', CIHS Bulletin, Issue #88, March 2019, <https://senate-gro.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Bulletin-88-Final.pdf> (Accessed May 13, 2021), page 8.</ref> Furthermore, measures have been implemented to streamline the asylum process for those in Canada, professionalize the provision of advice, and make claiming asylum in Canada less desirable, including by: * <u>Limitations on appeal:</u> One efficiency measure that was implemented at the time of the IRB's founding was that refugee claimants no longer had the ability to appeal a refusal of their claim under this revised system.

The office was renewed by the UN General Assembly thereafter, but only for successive five-year periods. UNHCR's temporary nature, and repeated renewals, continued until December 2003. At that time, the UNGA removed the temporal limitation and created a framework for refugee protection set to continue indefinitely, "until the refugee problem is solved".<ref name=":29" /> In Shauna Labman's words, the removal of the temporal limitation on UNHCR's mandate speaks to the recognition of the increasing unlikelihood of such a resolution.<ref name=":29" /> Ebbing expectations of any permanent solution to refugee issues have come at the same time as refugee numbers have grown, asylum claimants have come from further afield, and concomitant refugee status determination costs have increased. This has been driven by reductions in the cost of international air travel, and the end of the Cold War, and with it a sharp reduction in the number of countries placing limits on the ability of nationals to leave their state (viz. the fall of the Berlin Wall).<ref name=":62" /> In response, in Bríd Ní Ghráinne's words, states have begun to employ increasingly "creative" means to constrain refugee flows and restrict the number of individuals they recognize as refugees.<ref name=":3">Bríd Ní Ghráinne, ''Safe Zones and the Internal Protection Alternative'', 2020-04-16, International and Comparative Law Quarterly, DOI: 10.1017/S0020589320000019 <https://doi.org/10.1017/S0020589320000019> (Accessed April 18, 2020), page 341.</ref> Such measures have included curtailing the entry of refugees onto their territories through what she terms “relatively invisible—and hence politically expedient—''non-entrée'' measures”<ref name=":3" /> which have been deployed by Canada to an increasing extent in recent decades.

The shift from the ''Immigration Act'' to the IRPA that June marked a new era of asylum policy in Canada - one that has been described as being focused on relieving administrative burdens. In the drafting and development of the IRPA, considerable public attention was devoted to the question of whether to have one act governing immigration matters and a separate act governing refugee law. The idea, motivated by concern about the fundamental differences between immigration and refugee law, and advocated for in the ''Not Just Numbers'' report, was ultimately rejected; however, the Act's new title and the establishment of a separate division of the legislation devoted to refugees reflect this concern.<ref>Sharryn Aiken, et al, ''Immigration and Refugee Law: Cases, Materials, and Commentary (Third Edition)'', Jan. 1 2020, Emond, ISBN: [tel:1772556319 1772556319], at page 27.</ref> Highlights of the new legislative framework include the following: * <u>Framework legislation:</u> Compared to the previous legislation, the IRPA was described as framework legislation, with more details to be found in the regulations.<ref name=":45" /> *<u>Consolidated grounds for refugee protection:</u> The IRPA expanded the categories of persons entitled to refugee protection. Under the former immigration legislation, the only category of person who was clearly entitled to protection at the IRB was a person who fell within the definition of “Convention refugee”.

The Adjudication Division was also renamed the Immigration Division (ID). *<u>Creation of the RAD:</u> The IRPA created the Refugee Appeal Division (RAD), which would review negative decisions on their merits, though this took ten years to fully implement.<ref>Marlene Epp, “Refugees in Canada: A Brief History,” Immigration And Ethnicity In Canada 35 (2017), <https://cha-shc.ca/_uploads/5c374fb005cf0.pdf>, at 24-25.</ref> Specifically, after the Act was passed, ''Citizenship and Immigration Canada'' announced that as a result of “pressures on the system” implementation of the RAD would be delayed.<ref>Hamlin, Rebecca.

At the same time, before the IRPA, refugee claimants were allowed to make a second claim to the CRDD if they had been out of Canada for at least 90 days. However, with the advent of the IRPA, claimants could only submit one claim to the RPD even if they leave the country and return. * <u>Clarification of the Chairperson's powers:</u> The powers of the IRB Chairperson were clarified and added to, including the power to designate coordinating members; to delegate certain powers; to assign GIC-appointees to a Division; to take any action necessary to ensure that IRB members carry out their duties efficiently and without undue delay; and, in addition to the power to issue guidelines in writing to members, the Chairperson now also had to the power to identify IRB decisions as “jurisprudential guides” to assist members in carrying out their duties. *<u>Increased security provisions:</u> Sharryn Aiken, et. al., write that the most significant shift signalled by the IRPA is that it demonstrated a marked security turn in Canadian immigration law. They note that "this is hardly surprising in legislation that was passed in the immediate aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States.<ref name=":18" /> Peter Showler writes that the government almost scrapped IRPA to introduce a law much tougher on refugees, but that Immigration Minister Elinor Caplan decided to proceed with the IRPA in the end.<ref>Peter Showler, ''My Time at the Immigration and Refugee Board'', CIHS Bulletin, Issue #88, March 2019, <https://senate-gro.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Bulletin-88-Final.pdf> (Accessed May 13, 2021), page 16.</ref> This law included a number of security-related measures, including: **<u>Increased authority to detain claimants:</u> The IRPA expanded the authority of immigration officers to detain refugee claimants where they represented a flight risk, a danger to the public, and/or their identity was in doubt.

For example, that report had recommended that the processing of overseas and inland refugee claims be unified within a single system with shared decision-makers for both. Having a single system reflected a desire for more consistent decision-making on refuge status, but, in Shauna Labman's words, "[brushed over] the additional necessity of the selection aspect in overseas resettlement."<ref>Shauna Labman, ''Crossing Law’s Border: Canada’s Refugee Resettlement Program,'' 2019, UBC Press: Vancouver, page 43.</ref> The proposal was not adopted. == Post-IRPA measures == Following the introduction of the IRPA, a number of measures were taken which had a continued focus on system integrity, efficiency, and reducing backlogs at the RPD. These included: * <u>Reverse-order questioning:</u> The year following the introduction of the IRPA, in 2003, the IRB Chairperson issued Guideline 7 on the Conduct of a Hearing, which created a new order for questioning during an RPD hearing. The new order of questioning in a hearing of a claim for refugee protection was that, if the Minister is not a party, any witness, including the claimant, would be questioned first by the RPD and then by the claimant’s counsel.<ref>David Vinokur, ''30 Years of Changes at the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada'', CIHS Bulletin, Issue #88, March 2019, <https://senate-gro.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Bulletin-88-Final.pdf> (Accessed May 13, 2021), page 10.</ref> * <u>Refusal to introduce the RAD:</u> Over the next decade subsequent to the coming into force of the IRPA, there were several attempts by some members of Parliament to pass another act forcing the implementation of the RAD, including a very near success in summer 2008.<ref>Hamlin, Rebecca.

Such GIC appointments to the IRB have always been controlled by the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, although reforms implemented in the 1990s started to provide greater scope for management of the IRB to participate in the selection and reappointment of Members based on more merit-based criteria. These efforts were reversed in the winter of 2006 when the newly elected government introduced changes to give the Minister greater control and discretion. The Chair of the IRB, Jean-Guy Fleury, unexpectedly resigned at this time, eight months before the end of his mandate, leading to speculation that he did so in protest, having been a strong advocate for a more merit-based appointment process.<ref name=":49" /> Similarly, there were early exits of a deputy chair and the IRB executive director, as well as the resignation of all five members of an advisory panel that selected Immigration and Refugee Board adjudicators, who released a public letter indicating that they were resigning in protest.<ref>Nicholas Keung, ''PM defends refugee board changes'', Toronto Star, March 1, 2007, <https://www.thestar.com/news/2007/03/01/pm_defends_refugee_board_changes.html> (Accessed December 25, 2021).</ref> *<u>Introduction of the Safe Third Country Agreement with the United States:</u> STCAs are bi- or multi-lateral agreements requiring refugees to seek refuge in the first country they reach, prohibiting them from seeking asylum in the other state(s) party to the agreement.<ref name=":34" /> A provision for safe third country agreements was included in Canada's ''Immigration Act'' in the 1980s. Canada attempted to negotiate such an agreement with the United States in the decades following, initially without success. For example, in 1993 Canada entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with the United States with the intent of the latter being declared as a safe third country,<ref>Monica Boyd & Nathan T.B.

Its size has grown from 25 states in the 1950s to 106 today. As a result, Gil Loescher writes, ExCom has become too large and politicized and it is frequently not an effective decision-making body.<ref name=":59" /> *<u>Regulation of immigration consultants:</u> The Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants was established to regulate the activities of immigration consultants providing representation for a fee in 2004, the first time that such a regulatory body had been established in Canada.<ref name=":66" /> As well, on June 22, 2006, the Prime Minister offered a public apology in the House of Commons to the Chinese-Canadian communities impacted by the head tax and previous exclusionary legislation. The government agreed to pay $20,000 in compensation to the survivors, or their spouses, who had paid the head tax; there were about 20 left alive at that point.<ref name=":89" /> == Refugee reform in 2010 and 2012 == Two pieces of legislation made significant changes to the refugee system in 2010 and 2012, the ''Balanced Refugee Reform Act'' (BRRA, 2010) and the ''Protecting Canada’s Immigration System Act'' (PCISA, June 2012). The BRRA received royal assent on June 29, 2010. It was passed by Parliament during a minority government and among its substantial amendments to the IRPA were some compromises proposed by the opposition parties. A federal election was subsequently held on May 2, 2011 and following that election, the BRRA was amended by the new majority government in Parliament, before the substantial provisions of the BRRA came into force on December 15, 2012. Those subsequent amendments came in the form of PCISA. Key portions of PCISA were originally part of the ''Preventing Human Smugglers from Abusing Canada’s Immigration System Act'' (Human Smugglers Act), which was introduced as Bill C-49 in October 2010. After the May 2011 Canadian federal election caused Bill C-49 to die on the order paper, the newly formed majority government re-introduced the provisions as Bill C-4 in June 2011. This ''Human Smugglers Act'' was then incorporated into Bill C-31, PCISA, in June 2012.<ref>Bond, Jennifer. "Failure to Report: The Manifestly Unconstitutional Nature of the Human Smugglers Act."

''Let Me Be a Refugee: Administrative Justice and the Politics of Asylum in the United States, Canada, and Australia''. New York: Oxford University Press, 2014. Print. Page 89.</ref> The RAD, as implemented at this point, had a broader mandate than that envisioned when the legislative provisions for the RAD were originally enacted at the time that the IRPA came into force. For example, the IRPA originally allowed the Minister and the person who is the subject of the appeal to present only written submissions. This was subsequently modified by the BRRA to allow them to submit documentary evidence as well, albeit “only evidence that arose after the rejection of their claim or that was not reasonably available, or that the person could not reasonably have been expected in the circumstances to have presented.”<ref>''Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) v.

The initiative was modelled on the European Safe Country of Origin list, which is used in that asylum system.<ref name=":35" /> The implications for asylum seekers coming from DCOs included an expedited hearing process with shortened timelines, no access to the Refugee Appeal Division, no automatic stay of removal for failed claimants seeking judicial review, limited access to PRRA, and no eligibility for a work permit or health care for the first 180 days during which they were awaiting a decision on their claim.<ref>Martine Valois and Henri Barbeau, ''The Federal Courts and Immigration and Refugee Law,'' in Martine Valois, et. al., eds., The Federal Court of Appeal and the Federal Court: 50 Years of History, Toronto: Irwin Law, 2021, at page 331.</ref> Designation as a safe country was dependent on a combination of qualitative observations of countries’ levels of democratic process and human rights records and on two quantitative thresholds, including when 75 percent or more of previous claims by nationals of a country had been rejected by the IRB or 60 percent or more of previous claims by nationals of a country had been withdrawn.

Canada''.<ref>''Feher v. Canada (Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness)'', [2019] FCJ No. 308 (FC).</ref> The ''Balanced Refugee Reform Act'' also transferred authority over the PRRA from the Minister to the IRB, although this transfer was never actually brought into force,<ref>Hamlin, Rebecca.

Page 171.</ref> and was eventually repealed effective 2022. * <u>Limitations on the Interim Federal Health Program:</u> The Interim Federal Health Program provides refugee claimants with access to health care while their claims are pending. As part of a strategy to create disincentives for refugee claimants to come to Canada, on December 15, 2012 the government cut access to health care for some categories of claimants.<ref>Sharryn Aiken, et al, ''Immigration and Refugee Law: Cases, Materials, and Commentary (Third Edition)'', Jan. 1 2020, Emond, ISBN: [tel:1772556319 1772556319], at page 916.</ref> This policy change was introduced via Orders in Council which limited access to health care in Canada while select refugee claims were pending, principally claims from claimants who originated from DCOs.<ref>Donald Galloway, ''Populism and the failure to acknowledge the human rights of migrants,'' in Dauvergne, C.

This policy was declared unconstitutional by the Federal Court in 2015, with the court concluding that the resultant regime amounted to "cruel and unusual treatment" prohibited by the ''Canadian'' ''Charter of Rights and Freedoms''.<ref name=":22" /> This decision is one in a line of similar cases from courts that have pushed back against restrictive asylum legislation around the world. For example, the UK House of Lords, in ''Limbuela'', found that decisions made to refuse support to asylum seekers risked violating the prohibition on inhuman and degrading treatment due to the risk of a claimant being "obliged to sleep in the street, save perhaps for a short and foreseeably finite period, or was seriously hungry, or unable to satisfy the most basic requirements of hygiene".<ref>''Limbuela v Secretary of State for the Home Department'' [2005] UKHL 66 [9], as cited in Emma Borland, ''Temporal pillars of fairness: reflections on the UK's asylum adjudication regime from an original refugee-centred position'', PhD Thesis, 2020, Cardiff University, <https://orca.cardiff.ac.uk/132879/> (Accessed June 30 2021), page 75.</ref> * <u>Cessation:</u> The new legislation provided for the loss of permanent resident status for certain persons if the RPD allows an application from the Minister for the cessation of their refugee protection.

This aligned with comments at the time from the Immigration Minister Jason Kenney of this sort: "I think most Canadians intuitively understand that broad public support for immigration, and, frankly, diversity in our society is contingent on having a well-managed, rules-based, fair immigration system. I think they understand that we all have a stake in maintaining such a system".<ref name=":8" /> Following the coming into force of this new legislation and RPD rules in 2012, there was a 49 percent decline in asylum claims.<ref>Ernesto Castaneda, ''Fortress North America: Theorizing a Regional Approach to Migration Management,'' American University, <[https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/66598692/Fortress_North_America_4_23_21_Castaneda_Danielson_Rathod-with-cover-page-v2.pdf?Expires=1626553200&Signature=Sszz1nlFvj16tw1o-ugkUpZorOqRJpaAqCAIGZhMutAkLubShL~iqScCGE0IUam4suCH-Vr4LLHlJCaE1FP3pv2xK-VF5C7BVHu1mxpJzjjUmTgV-3Q93sS2sorw6qPQ8SWsYYmQpNsJuruYdnBwfAXN~eTisxAoCUVzmXJX-Z5Gs8p~J1-0Py3fWaWz8n9TKYnqwgl3SB~02IMrwZ4y3e96IQbpuhUxzX7B33VUvY20u3tRo5qzbIo2qU~T2n4m9u~5PMgfWTJHEkKg4377JUBKw6JL1QGIDloajZ~476V494ip4ndLudQGoXUeqXwdxuef93yBshofC~A7hvBJMw__&Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/66598692/Fortress_North_America_4_23_21_Castaneda_Danielson_Rathod-with-cover-page-v2.pdf]> (Accessed July 18, 2021), at page 28.</ref> In addition to the above legislation, in 2011, Bill C-35—which was originally called the ''Cracking Down on Crooked Consultants Act''—amended section 91 of the IRPA. Through regulations made by the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, the Immigration Consultants of Canada Regulatory Council (ICCRC) then became the regulator of immigration consultants. == 2010s refugee protection initiatives == === Changes to the regime for those with criminal records === Prior to 2013, the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act provided that no appeal to the Immigration Appeal Division was available if a permanent resident was inadmissible with respect to a crime that was punished in Canada by a term of imprisonment of at least two years.

However, the child must be within the age limit and meet the requirements of a dependent child.

By the end of 2018, for instance, the UN Refugee Agency alone reported the capture and storage of biometric identity for over 7.1 million refugees.<ref>Achiume, E. Tendayi. “Digital Racial Borders.” AJIL Unbound, vol. 115, 2021, pp. 333–338., doi:10.1017/aju.2021.52.</ref> Canada has long been collecting biometric information from refugee claimants and at this time it began to exchange such information more with partner countries. Canada has long had information-sharing agreements with the United States whereby information about refugee claimants is exchanged. For example, the Canada-US Smart Border Declaration of December 2001 committed that the two countries would develop common biometric identifiers and engage in the exchange of information.<ref name=":64" /> A 2003 agreement between the countries entitled ''Sharing of Information on Asylum and Refugee Status Claims'' allows for the automated, systematic sharing of information between Canada and the US about asylum seekers, including biometric and biographic data.<ref name=":64" /> The exchanged information includes: identity-related information, for example biographic and biometric data; previous refugee claim status (denied, abandoned, or granted); data that would indicate that a claim is inadmissible; and any evidence submitted to support a previous application.<ref name=":64" /> In 2009 the "Five Eyes" countries signed a Data Sharing Protocol to conduct a small number of "immigration checks" through biometric (fingerprint) data exchanges. This arrangement was intended as a pilot for automated data exchanges and it involved commitments to share 3000 fingerprints annually. Canada then reached information sharing agreements with the United Kingdom (2015), Australia (2016), and New Zealand (2016) which moved from the pilot model to the automated sharing of information.<ref name=":64" /> == Irregular border crossing controversy == Since the Board's 1989 founding, the number of people making refugee claims has increased greatly, both in Canada and internationally. Looking at the numbers globally, during decade of the 1980s, there were 2.3 million applications for asylum lodged worldwide, mostly in western Europe, the United States, and Canada. During the 1990s, this number grew to 6.1 million applications filed, and the list of receiving nations grew to include Australia, New Zealand, Scandinavia, and southern Europe.

For example, in Australia, the historical average success rate for asylum seekers who arrive by boat has been more than 80 per cent.

It recommended that the new regulatory body for immigration consultants develop a system of tiered licensing, with the highest level reserved for litigation before the IRB. The ensuing College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants officially opened on December 9, 2021. In 2019, Parliament passed legislation that permitted implementation of the tiered licensing. As a result, the College bylaws provided that a Class L3 license for representation at the IRB would be required “after July 1, 2022, or such other date as may be fixed by the Board by resolution”. In June 2022, the Board of Directors of the College passed a resolution setting July 1, 2023, as the new date for the requirement for a Class L3 licence. This Class L3 licence is also called “IRB-Certification” or the “Specialization Program”.<ref>College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants, 2023, ''Specialization Program'', <https://college-ic.ca/licensee-obligations/ongoing-education-for-rcics/specialization-program> (Accessed December 29, 2023).</ref> == Increased use of web-based and digital technologies == Around the 2020s, the normal refugee intake process began to be modified to use more technology, including by making it more web-based.

Then, on September 13, 2022, IRCC launched the new asylum online application (eApp) via the IRCC Portal, which replaced the Canadian Refugee Protection Portal (CRPP) as the main way to make an inland refugee claim.<ref>IRCC, ''Program delivery update: Launch of the new asylum eApp via the IRCC Portal'', January 11, 2023, <https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/updates/2022-asylum-eapp.html> (Accessed December 12, 2024). </ref> CBSA piloted a new refugee processing model called “One Touch” for low risk, eligible claimants in Quebec Region that began in November of 2022.<ref name=":02">Canada Border Services Agency, ''Letter to Stakeholders'', September 2023, <https://capicconnect.com/Public/ViewResources?name=Information%20regarding%20One%20Touch%20implementation%20in%20the%20GTA%20Region.pdf> (Accessed December 12, 2024).</ref> The pilot moved away from adjourning eligibility interviews of refugee claimants to a later date. It replaced that with a model where officers conduct a risk assessment and an interview to determine whether a claimant is low-risk and eligible to be referred to the IRB. Officers who assess a claimant as low-risk and eligible to make a refugee claim will refer the claim to the IRB without the completion of the paper-based application (i.e. IMM0008, Schedule A and Schedule 12). Claimants processed using the One Touch model will be required to complete their refugee claim application using the IRCC portal within 45 days of their claim being found eligible and being referred to the IRB. The pilot was deemed a success and the CBSA rolled the One Touch model out nationally in September 2023.<ref name=":02" /> More details: [[Canadian Refugee Procedure/21-23 - Status and Authorization to Enter#23: Entry to complete examination or hearing]]. The CBSA also launched the ReportIn app in 2024, which uses facial recognition technology and location data to confirm identity and the person's whereabouts.

Starting September 16, 2025, it started to become available to self-represented refugee claimants and uncontracted DRs who are part of a case group (e.g. parents, legal guardians, family members). One of the driving forces for these digitization initiatives was a substantial increase in the number of claims. Parts of the claim process began to slow. For example, a backlog of claim eligibility decisions accumulated. As of October 2023, the overall processing time for eligibility decisions was 136 days. At that point, work permit applications would be approved within 10 days, 80% of the time, once a positive eligibility decision was recorded and a medical examination completed.<ref>Government of Canada, ''CIMM – Asylum System Processing and Innovations – October 24, 2023'', <https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/transparency/committees/cimm-october-24-2023/asylum-processing-innovations.html> (Accessed December 12, 2024).</ref> == Conclusion == The next chapters in the story of refugee protection procedure in Canada remain to be written. What can be said is that the concept of the ‘refugee’ is as old as the state system, and, in the words of academic Eve Lester, it will remain with us for as long as the state system remains.<ref name=":33" /> As Emma Haddad writes, refugees are the consequence of erecting political boundaries and failing to protect all individuals as citizens, hence pushing insiders outside. So long as these conditions pertain - there are political borders constructing separate states and creating clear definitions of insiders and outsiders, and failures of protection - there will be refugees.<ref>Haddad, E. (2008). The Refugee in International Society: Between Sovereigns (Cambridge Studies in International Relations). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. doi:10.1017/CBO9780511491351, pages 7 and 213.</ref> As Alan Nash observes, the structure for protecting refugees is flawed and subject to a series of opposing tensions.
