There are now just over 25,000 Syrian refugees who've arrived in Canada since the Liberal government rolled out its $678-million plan for refugee resettlement in November that targeted having that many people here by the end of this month.

• 25,000th Syrian refugee lands in Canada
• Nearly half of Syrian refugees lack permanent homes, as Ottawa seeks hotels 
• Liberals move to overhaul rules on revoking, granting citizenship
• Liberal government fully restores refugee health care program

Here are five things to know about the program:

1. It's not what the Liberals promised during the campaign.

1. 这不是自由党在竞选期间所承诺的。

Initially, they said they would bring 25,000 Syrians to Canada by the end of 2015 under the government-assisted refugee program that sees the government take on the full cost of a person's resettlement for a full year. The Liberal campaign platform said they would work with private sponsors to do even more.

But under the formal plan rolled out after they took office, they pushed back the deadline to resettle that many government-assisted refugees to the end of 2016. They then set a new target of resettling 25,000 people in total by the end of February 2016

2. How many privately sponsored Syrian refugees will be accepted to Canada remains unknown.

2.有多少私人赞助的叙利亚难民将被加拿大接受仍是未知数。

While the government has set a target number for Syrians they'll support, they've not yet set a cap on how many private sponsorship applications they'll accept. As of Feb. 27, there were 8,527 Syrians in Canada with private sponsors and applications continue to be received by government.

3. There are more than 25,000 Syrians here.

3.这里已有超过25,000名叙利亚人。

The previous Conservative government had also accepted Syrian refugees, albeit on a smaller scale and in a program that was over a much longer timeline. Their original program was to resettle 1,500 between summer 2013 and the end of 2014, but that goal was not met until March 2015.

In January 2015, they pledged to accept 10,000 more over three years. Between Jan. 1, 2014, and Nov. 3, 2015, 3,089 Syrian refugees arrived in Canada.

4. Canada is officially resettling more Syrian refugees than many other countries.

4.官方上加拿大比其他许多国家安置了更多的叙利亚难民。

An estimated 4.7 million Syrians have registered as refugees since the outbreak of the Syrian civil war in 2011. But the UN refugee agency is not seeking permanent new homes for that many. They've reached out to countries to absorb about 10 per cent.

Only Germany has made more official spaces formally available than Canada. Just under one million Syrians, though, have sought asylum in European countries, meaning they've travelled on their own and have claimed refugee status upon arrival. Some have UN refugee status, some don't. Since July 2013 and until the end of last year, 1,502 Syrian nationals already in Canada have requested, and received, refugee status.

5. Syrians who've arrived in Canada mostly do not come from refugee camps.

5.那些已抵达加拿大的叙利亚人大多不是来自难民营。

Only about 10 per cent of Syrian refugees are in formal refugee camps in the countries surrounding Syria, according to the United Nations refugee agency. The rest are living everywhere from rented apartments to farm fields.

Canada's program focused on admitted refugees currently living in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey. While they are not directly coming from camps, all have official refugee status conferred upon them by the UN; those who've been selected from that pool to come to Canada as government assisted refugees have also been deemed as being at risk where they are living now.

Here's a by-the-numbers look at the program and the Liberal government's various moving targets:
