Email Immigration Minister: Remove Racist Limit of 1000 for Gaza Family Reunification

Late in December, Immigration Minister Marc Miller promised that Canada would offer a 3-year temporary residence visa to the extended family members of Canadians stuck in Gaza.

However, when the government released details last week, the program was set to limit the total number of applicants to 1000. Compared to the 616,000 Ukrainian individuals who accepted similar visas in 2022, this arbitrary cap is racist and inhumane.

What’s more, Minister of Mental Health Ya’ara Saks, has suggested that this demeaning immigration measure is a response to security “threats” associated with an influx from Gaza.

Worse, Canada has invited Israel to help vet visa applicants.

Ultimately, the program for Gaza, as implemented, is offensive and racist.

Demand that the Canadian government allow unlimited family reunification visas for Gaza and end the other racist aspects of this inhumane program. Your email will be sent to your own MP, Immigration Minister Marc Miller, the Prime Minister, and other relevant government officials.
