Data released Friday by Ipsos in its annual Pride Report showed Canada was among the few nations where support has gone up among 26 countries surveyed.
I mean, iirc Canada already accepts some LGBT refugees from other parts of the world. So unless you’re saying that everyone in the US is queer, it seems like the obvious thing to do would be to apply the same standards to US LGBT refugees as LGBT refugees from other parts of the world.
Don’t know about Canada specifically but as far as i know asylum laws are about having a valid reason, so being from a specific place is less often a valid reason than being from a minority (can also be religious or ethnical) or having certain political views. They would likely sooner accept for example Amish , indigenous or democratic people only before just accepting anyone from the US. I think you’re wrong in believing that is unlikely to happen if you see how anyone with a Hispanic demeanor is being treated right now.
I think they would need to prove that they are personally under threat. Which would be difficult.
However, two same-sex married people who have been married for a while and have other qualifications that could be beneficial (career, etc) might be able to get priority attention.
That’s awesome. Now, when are you gonna remove the law barring US LGBT refugees?
Are we really that far gone yet? No, but we’re headed there.
That would require accepting anyone as a refugee from the US, and that is extremely unlikely to happen, ever.
