Upon Arrıval

I'm still not convinced about the "Upon Arrival" topic. Once immigrants (who have gone through the immigration application process, which presumably is what we're discussing) arrive onto Canadian soil, they have already been admitted. The only exception to this is asylum seekers, whose application to stay in Canada can be either accepted or rejected. Their "issue of admission" is still up for debate, but not for immigrants who have already been admitted by the Citizenship & Immigration Canada and are now physically in Canada. I really believe that our topic of admission ends once immigrants have arrived in Canada. Any questions regarding welcome programs, assistance, integration into society belong under settlement.
