Canada has become a favorite destination for Mexican asylum seekers while Canada accepts their claims at an alarmingly low rate compared to those from other nations. We argue that the reason Mexicans choose Canada to claim refugee status is due to Canada&#8217;s long history of open immigration policies and especially its economic and temporary labor agreements. These policies give the impression to Mexicans that they are welcome in Canada. This proved to be untrue when Canada changed its immigration and refugee policies in response, specifically, to the overwhelming number of Mexican refugee claims.]]></p></abstract>

Se encuentra que Canadá se ha convertido en el destino favorito de los refugiados mexicanos, mientras dicho país acepta sus solicitudes a una tasa alarmantemente baja en comparación con las solicitudes de otras naciones. Argumento que la razón por la cual los mexicanos eligieron Canadá para pedir el estatus de refugiado, es derivado de una larga historia de política de inmigración abierta y especialmente por sus acuerdos laborales y económicos. Estas políticas dan la impresión a los mexicanos que son bienvenidos en Canadá. Sin embargo se demuestra que esto no es cierto toda vez que Canadá cambió sus políticas de inmigración y de refugiados en respuesta, específicamente, a la abrumadora cantidad de solicitudes de refugiados mexicanos.]]></p></abstract>
