| Notes | Canadian churches tend to be more familiar with refugees than with migrants. They have sponsored refugees and welcomed them into their communities. Less well understood are the needs of migrants. Much remians to be done to counter prejudice and gather migrants into our circle of care. While some economic migrants experience a high degree of freedom and privilege, many more suffer exploitation and abuse due to limited guarantees and protection of their rights.
