History[edit]

Prior to the establishment of the Naturalization Act of 1947, persons who were born in Canada and those who were naturalized Canadians regardless of their country of origin, were all categorized as British Subjects.[4] Therefore, during these times, when 'citizen' and 'citizenship' were referred to people living in Canada would mean not possessing Canadian citizenship status at all. When the Citizenship Act was put in place, it concreted the sense of nationalism and the Canadian pride of identity to its citizenry.[5] Under the British North America Act of 1867, immigration responsibilities were shared by the Federal Government and Provincial/Territorial Government and Commissions.[6]

Department of Interior (Canada) 1873 to 1936.[7] For 63 years, the Department of the Interior administered the Western Canada settlement program and development which subsequently created Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, respectively.[7]

Department of Immigration and Colonization 1917 to 1936. This was the first and original Department of Citizenship and Immigration Canada.[8]

Department of Mines and Resources 1936 to 1950. By 1950, immigration administration was shifted to this federal department from the Department of Citizenship and Colonization.[9]

Department of Citizenship and Immigration 1950 to 1966. During and after the Second World War, some federal agencies were sharing the same duties and responsibilities for immigration policy enforcement and administration.[6] These were the Ministry of Mines and Resources from 1936 to 1949, the Department of Citizenship and Immigration from 1950 to 1966 and 1977 up to present, the Department of Manpower and Immigration from 1966 to 1977, and the Canada Employment and Immigration Commission which was created in 1977.[6]

Department of Manpower and Immigration 1966 to 1977.[6] All immigration responsibilities was put under this federal department but this department was also under the umbrella of Department of State for Citizenship and remained until 1991.[6]

Department of State for Citizenship 1966 to 1991.[9] The department was administering the Department of Manpower and Immigration until 1991. Both entities have responsibilities to govern immigration policy making.[9]

Department of Employment and Immigration 1977 to 1991.[9] See Minister of Multiculturalism and Citizenship

Department of Multiculturalism and Citizenship 1991 to 1994.[9] See Minister of Multiculturalism and Citizenship

Citizenship and Immigration Canada 1994 to 2015.[10]

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada 2015–Present.[10] The purpose of adding the term 'refugees' to the new name of the federal agency is to reflect the current program of Government of Canada in its effort of responding to the current refugee immigration issues across the globe.[10]

Following amendments to the Canadian Passport Order which dissolved Passport Canada as an independent agency, IRCC took over responsibility for issuing Canadian passports effective July 1, 2013.[11]

Citizenship and Immigration Legislations History[edit]

Immigration and citizenship legislation are laws that set standards, policies and practices in accordance with the Citizenship Act.[12] The following is the chronology of Canadian immigration and citizenship laws.

Naturalization Act (May 22, 1868 – December 22, 31, 1946). All Canadians born inside and outside Canada, were subject to the crown or 'British Subjects'.[4]

Canadian Citizenship Act (January 1, 1947). This Act legitimized and acknowledged Canadian citizenship.[4]

Citizenship Act (February 15, 1977). This Act recognized dual citizenship and abolished 'special treatment' to the British subjects.[4]

Bill C-14: An Act to amend the Citizenship Act with clauses for Adopted Children (December 23, 2007). An Act which provided that adopted children will automatically acquire Canadian citizenship without going through the application for permanent resident stage.[4]

Bill C-37: An Act to amend the Citizenship Act (April 17, 2009). An Act intended to limit the citizenship privilege to first generation only and gave the opportunity to Canadian citizens to re-acquire their citizenship, hence, repealing provisions from former legislation.[4]

Bill C-24: Strengthening the Canadian Citizenship Act (June 19, 2014 (Royal Assent), June 11, 2015 (Came into force)). 'The Act contains a range of legislative amendments to further improve the citizenship program'.[4]

Bill C-6: An Act to amend the Citizenship Act (June 19, 2017 (Royal Assent), October 11, 2017 (Came into force)). This Act will give 'stateless' person an opportunity to be granted with Canadian citizenship which 'statelessness' is considered as a legal ground for granting such privilege. This is only one of the many changes included in this new amendment of the Citizenship Act.[13]

Presence[edit]

IRCC operates a large network of 'Citizenship and Immigration Centres' throughout Canada such as Case Processing Centres (CPCs), Centralized Intake Offices (CIOs) and Operations Support Centres (OPCs), as well as an important number of embassies, high commissions and consulates abroad.[14]

MIssissauga, Ontario (Case Processing Centre) accepts all applications for the family sponsorship program, both inside and outside of Canada.[15]

Sydney, Nova Scotia (Case Processing Centre and Centralized Intake Office) is responsible for releasing permanent resident cards for first-time holders, as well as renewals. Its intake office handles all applications for all types of work visas and applications for provincial nominee programs across Canada. The Nova Scotia office is also responsible for processing all types of citizenship applications.[15]

Ottawa, Ontario (Case Processing Centre) is responsible for processing visitor visas inside Canada only and restricted to temporary foreign workers and student visas only which meet valid status requirements. CPC-O processes applications for permanent residents within Canada and from the United States of America that satisfactorily meet requirements according to the standard procedures set by the case processing centre in Mississauga and the intake office in Sydney.[15]

Across the world[edit]

Canadian embassies and consular offices across the world play an important role in safeguarding its citizens while abroad.[16] There are identified countries in different regions around the globe that are strategically located and serve as case processing centres for students, temporary residents, visitors, refugees and landed immigrants visa applications.[17]

Service Canada recently started to take over some of the domestic field operations of the department, while with its creation in 2003, the Canada Border Services Agency took over the control of enforcement and entry control at land borders and airports.

IRCC remains responsible for the establishment of policies and processing of permanent and temporary resident visa, refugee protection and citizenship applications.

Acts and regulations[edit]

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) was created and is guided by the principles provided in specific Canadian laws. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedom is its guiding light in enforcing immigration policies and laws, and preserving human rights. The below list of Acts and regulations highlights the guiding principles for IRCC's operations and dealings with other organizations, both in Canada and abroad.[18]

Free facial composite sketch software. In fact, there's an of the Faces software, which its makers say can be used with younger children for 'enhancing drama and reading appreciation by allowing students to develop images of historic or fictional characters.' In fact I'd say this highlights the power of reading and imagination. I've had a lot of requests for characters that have seen big film adaptations, and it's not just fandom-I think it's because the readers suggesting them know that even a live-action adaptation doesn't quite capture what's in a writer's words and in the readers heads.' In any case, it's not as if these renderings are super-realistic. Part of the weird appeal may well have to do with the strangeness of the facial composite itself.'

Acts[edit]

Enumerated below are the Acts that are used and applied under any circumstances related to Canadian immigration, refugees, and citizenship. Here is the list of the Acts governing IRCC:

Funding[edit]

The Honourable Ahmed D. Hussen, Minister of Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada, through the Departmental Results Report for 2016-2017 reported that the actual spending amount by IRCC was $1,600,050,249. The budget was spent through various immigration programs.[45] Once there are available funding opportunities for settlement organizations across Canada, updated application forms will be available at the funding section of IRCC website. The initiative is called 'Settlement Program and Resettlement Assistance Program (RAP)'. This program supports partners in providing services that enable smooth transitions for the newcomers' settlement plans. The services can vary from language skills development in both official languages (English and French), employment opportunities banking on the newcomers educational backgrounds and skills.

The four areas of focus for the program are 'information and orientation; language training and skills development; labour market access; and welcoming communities.'[46]

The IRCC is also funding the Refugee Resettlement Assistance Program by financing individual or family asylum seekers in finding temporary accommodations upon arrival in Canada, and eventually, locating a permanent place to live, supporting the ability to purchase daily basic needs and providing assistance with the development of general life skills.[47] The Government of Canada welcomed 25,000 Syrian Refugees by the end of February 2016 and also partake in funding this commitment in opening doors to this specific group of refugees. The refugees came into the country in three different refugee immigration schemes: the Privately Sponsored Refugees (PSRs), who were financially supported by private citizens or organizations, the Government Assisted Refugees (GARs), who were funded by IRCC through the Refugee Resettlement Assistance Program (RAP), and the Blended Visa Office-Referred Refugees (BVORs), which is a type of refugee classified by UNCHR and subsequently paired with Canadian private sponsors. They are given up to 6 months of financial aid until they can fully stand on their own.[48]

The Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada announced its estimated spending, through its Developmental Plan for 2018-2019 to be $179,940,020, for 2019-2020 to be $198,524,181, and for 2020-2021 to be $202,337,096.[49] The sum will be used to encourage students, temporary residents, visitors and immigrants alike to consider Canada as a new home.

Staffing[edit]

As per Departmental Results Report (2016-2017), the Honourable Ahmed D. Hussen, stated that a total of 6311 full-time employees are currently employed with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.[45] IRCC plans to continue acquiring more talent in the department's different divisions, as needed.[49] In fact, by 2018-2019, IRCC will hire 1,607 new employees, 1,631 for 2019-2020, and 1,590 for 2020-2021.[49]

Quality of Service[edit]

IRCC lacks properly managed client support channels to assist the applicants for their enquiries regarding their applications. Telephone calls to IRCC for permanent residency section has an average wait time of 40 minutes. Customer support agents are most of them times untrained and lacks domain knowledge to answer applicant's questions.[50] Web based Case Specific Enquiries[51] gets templated or canned replies instead of a proper response to applicant's questions. There has been many examples where an applicant's additional documents were not routed to the proper department which lead to delays and in some cases rejection of applications.[52] The case processing centre examining the applications lack overall quality as in the case of Vegreville Case Processing Centre which was relocated.[53]

[54] According to a review of 996 files handled at the Vegreville Case Processing Centre in Alberta, which deals with permanent residence applications, between November 1 and December 6, 2014, the quality management team found that of the 617 request letters sent to applicants

  • 13% did not address all missing items;
  • 23% had either no timeline, an incomplete timeline, or did not mention the consequences of failing to reply to the request; and
  • 6% were either “not professional” or chose the incorrect template form.
  • Of 426 files that received a second review, decisions were still pending on 149 owing to errors made at an earlier stage.

Processing Delays for Quebec skilled worker program.[edit]

Quebec skilled worker program is a two-stage permanent residency process. The applicants should obtain a Quebec Selection Certificate (CSQ) by applying to and getting selected by the province of Quebec. After obtaining a CSQ from Quebec, the applicant should apply to CIC for a permanent residency visa. The applicants going through this program is expected to have at least 4 years of total processing time before permanent residency is approved. Therefore, many skilled applicants if eligible applies for Express Entry which takes only 6 months for 80% of the applications rather than waiting 4 years in the case of Quebec skilled workers. Due this delays, Quebec skilled worker program is not popular among highly skilled immigrants who have other pathways of faster immigration to the rest of Canada. Moreover, skilled workers who are currently working or residing in Quebec is not eligible to apply through Express Entry according to the Canada Quebec Accord.[55] This processing delays [56] has led to many skilled workers and international students moving out of Quebec for faster immigration processing and the province of Quebec experiencing scarcity of skilled foreign workers. High tech businesses in Montreal are especially affected by this delays as it stunts business growth due to the lack of a skilled workforce.

The major responsibility of the Commission is to administer citizenship grants to admissible new applications for Canadian citizenship. The Citizenship Commission is composed of citizenship judges all across Canada. Its mandate is to administer Oath of Citizenship,[68] process and approve citizenship applications that meet residency requirements, educate new citizens with their civil responsibilities as new Canadians, and 'to promote citizenship in communities'.[69]

    Decisions will be made according to individual application circumstances, hence, making each citizenship judge unique and 'independent decision makers'.[69] However, their decisions are subject for judicial review by the citizenship applicants and by the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada. Citizenship judges must follow the principles provided by administrative law and natural justice as well as the Citizenship Act, Citizenship Regulations and other relevant precedents applicable to each individual case.[69]

    Citizenship Judges[edit]

    The citizenship judges are obliged to obey the mandate as stated by the Citizenship Commission under the Citizenship Act and the Citizenship Regulations. They will provide citizenship application assessment ensuring that the applicants meet the necessary requirements, such as residency, they will administer the Oath of Citizenship during ceremonies and review the rights, privileges and duties of a Canadian citizen, conduct hearings, and supply written decisions following timeline set by the regulation. They are also asked to maintain the integrity of the citizenship application process.[70]

    I tried virtual DVD thru the out of band management interface (IBM's IMM), I tried a physical DVD and a USB key. I could see the disc being accessed (all 3 types!) but it would not boot.Eventually, I did get the physical disc to boot and I installed ESXi. Cisco mcs 7800 specifications. All would result in simply a black screen. Based on the actual hardware specs, it should be capable. But perhaps there's some limitation of the motherboard or other hardware?I was able to get ESXi 5.0 installed, but honestly I have no clue what made the difference.
