Mr.' MESSAGE TO CHINESE Ottawa Seeking Racket Bosses The Government of Canada has recently ® message of great interest to all Canadians, and of particular import to members of Canada's Chinese community. It outlines the government's policy for Chinese persons who have en- tered Canada illegally, ex ning to them the action being taken in regard to the investi an immigration racket eovered. The pamphlet emphasizes again and again that it is the tightly or- ganized racketeers, not their help- less victims, against whom puni- tive action will be taken. Chinese who have entered Canada il- legally will not be prosecuted for this technical offence, committed in many cases, some years ago RACKET EXPLAINED ately dis- The operation of the racket is ; explained in the message as fol- lows: '"The 'paper family' tem is well known to the govern- ment. Many persons, who have visited China regularly: in past years, claim one or more children fp or conceived during visit. The papers for these can then be sold to persons wh wish to enter Canada but are ineligible under Canadian law. Some unfortunate Chinese in Canada have been forced by the brokers to give their papers imposters while their own chil dren remained in China. Many of these people originally entered Canada illegally and were threat- ened with exposure and deporta- tion if they did not co-operate, The system is under the control of illegal immigration brokers and racketeers in Canada and China, and these unscrupulous people extort large money for their services."
