Clarification on fake statement by Canadian Prime Minister

Facebook page under the name “Canadian Embassy” shared a statement by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau saying Canada will accept more than 500k immigrant from Arab countries before the end of 2017 and asked who wants to immigrate to Canada to contact it.

Verify-Sy would like to remind audience that this page is unofficial and there is no connection to any official Canadian government websites.

On the other side no official Canadian website quoted Trudeau saying his country will accept 500k immigrants at the end of 2017, but Canadian Immigration minister John McCallum said his country want to accept 300k immigrants at the end of 2017.
