Canada Imposes a Visa on Mexico
  • With Mexican claims tripling between 2005 and 2009, the Government of Canada, under Prime Minister Harper, decided to impose a Visa requirement on Mexican Nationals.
  • The intended goal was to bring in Mexicans seeking refuge before others who may not require the service as much.
  • This was later removed in 2016 by the Trudeau Government.
