Canada accepts refugees from various regions of the world. The primary countries of origin for refugees include:

• Syria – 6.8 million people. The conflict, which has been ongoing since 2011, has led to mass population displacements, with many Syrians forced to seek refuge in other countries. A lot of services were created in order to help the refugees from Syria. Thanks to them, refugees can obtain necessary legal and medical assistance.
• Venezuela – 4.6 million people. The political and economic crisis in Venezuela has led to millions of people fleeing the country in search of safety and basic living conditions.
• Afghanistan – 2.7 million people. After years of conflict, especially following the return to power of the Taliban movement in 2021, many Afghans have found themselves in a situation requiring international protection.
• South Sudan – 2.4 million people. The civil war and ethnic conflicts have led to significant displacement of the population both within the country and beyond its borders.
• Myanmar – 1.2 million people. Ethnic cleansing, particularly against the Rohingya, has forced many of the country’s residents to seek refugee abroad.
• India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, China, Laos.
