Canada grappling with the same immigration problem.


Australia is not alone in struggling with how to cope with an influx of unwanted migrants. The Conservative Government this week proposed legislation setting out tougher penalties for those caught smuggling illegal migrants into the country.
The BBC World Service reports that the proposed law would sentence individuals illegally bringing more than 50 people into the country to a minimum of 10 years in jail.Migrants could face jail, have reduced health care access and be denied permanent residency under the law.
