This is not only inhumane, but it also puts people in danger who will often make positive contributions to economic growth. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4435911\" data-originallang=\"en\">The United Nations has stated clearly that the closure of this camp will be devastating and have asked that the decision be reconsidered. What is Canada's position on Kenya's decision to close the Dadaab refugee camp?</p>",
