It is believed that Gypsies from Hungary will no longer be treated and discriminated as second class citizens when travelling from Hungary to Canada and will be allowed to acquire their visas for free. The Canadian Embassy in Budapest has reportedly voiced their concern that an increasing number of Hungarian Gypsies have abused the goodwill of the Canadian people by failing to comply with the rules and regulations of international travellers to the country.

There have also been uncountable reported cases of Hungarian Gypsies seeking economic and political asylum in Canada, claiming that the European Union has brought them only more hardship and increased unemployment alongside the already existing alleged intolerance and prejudice against Gypsies in their homeland.

The Canadian authorities have allegedly rejected hundreds of applications for refugee status, fearing that a large number of the applicants could be from a pool of criminals who want to illegally emigrate from Europe.
