Documents from Immigration revealed that, between February 2023 and January 2024, as many as 4,896 asylum seekers were sent to Niagara, costing taxpayers an average of $208 for each individual per day, “which includes rooms, meals, services, and security.”
Documents just released by Immigration show that, over the past year – and in Niagara alone – the feds spent more than $100 million taxpayer dollars on 4,896 asylum seekers.
This equates to $6,000 on each migrant per month.
The release comes after Conservative MP Tony Baldinelli, who represents Niagara Falls, filed an order paper question to Canada’s Immigration department.
Baldinelli asked for a breakdown of how many asylum seekers have been sent to Niagara, and how much the government has spent to house and feed them.
The response from Immigration revealed that, between February 2023 and January 2024, as many as 4,896 asylum seekers were sent to Niagara, costing taxpayers an average of $208 for each individual per day, “which includes rooms, meals, services, and security.”
The response also indicated that that the feds don’t track the refugee claimants after they leave the area.
Each refugee claimant stayed in Niagara hotels for an average of 113 days before moving on to unknown locations. Immigration refused to say which hotels they’re staying at over concerns for their safety.
“Room capacity can vary from one to six claimants per room,” the department stated.
