Alarmist and populist rhetoric about Canada being overwhelmed by a horde of refugees crossing the border is resurfacing these days. Not only is this a dangerous narrative, but it is also an unfounded one, writes @jnbeuze from @UNHCRCanada https://t.co/aX2pn0FsOD via @torontostar

Our @Refugees team heard numerous, harrowing reports of barbaric violence, including armed groups attacking civilians with guns, arrows and machetes, entire villages razed, and farms and shops being looted and damaged beyond repair: https://t.co/TcBrE6dVAs via @refugees

I made the call because I was extremely happy because of the new beginning of Ethiopia & Eritrea. Our countries have seen each other as an enemy for so long...many lost their lives. But now they made peace, which surprised me & the whole world. @FrehiwotNG https://t.co/Yslz8V3fZF
