Abstract

Once again the refugees are fleeing. Once again Canada leaps to the forefront and offers to accept 26,000 of those who have fled the fighting in the former state of Yugoslavia. Headlines scream: "Bosnian Strife Could Kill 500,000"; "Muslims Targeted; "Red Tape Stalls Bosnian Relief Convoy"; "Horrors of Sarajevo Taking Toll on Canadians;" and, most familiar of all, "The Refugees No One Wants." The fighting has produced over 2,000,000 displaced persons and refugees in the heart of Europe.
