A Bahá'í-inspired Perspective on Immigration with Ingrid Hauck

Ingrid Hauck, a Bahá'í and former immigration executive with the federal government, will look at immigration policy now and where it may be heading in the future. Some of the questions that will be explored include:

1) Is Canada accepting too few, too many or just the right amount of newcomers, including immigrants, refugees and temporary visitors such as students?
2) What do you think immigration flows might look like in a future time when there is a Bahá'í Commonwealth?
3) What are some of the considerations for a Bahá'í approach to migration? Is agreement among nations possible?
