City News — More than 100 Indian migrants deported by the US arrive home
A U.S. military plane carrying 104 deported Indian migrants arrived in a northern Indian city on Wednesday, the first such flight to the country as part of a crackdown ordered by the Trump administration, airport officials said. The Indians who returned home had illegally entered the United States over the years and came from various Indian states. The move came ahead of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Washington, which is expected next week. U.S. President Donald Trump and Modi discussed immigration in a phone call last week and Trump stressed the importance of India buying more American-made security equipment and fair bilateral trade.

The federal government has announced it will reduce the number of temporary residents in Canada this year, and is cutting back funds for organizations that supported the newcomers. Vancouver’s Collingwood Neighbourhood House says the cut means they’re losing around 20 employees and may have to drop a decades-old support program too.
CTV News — YWCA Axis program connects newcomers fleeing domestic violence with supports
A program run by YWCA Metro Vancouver has connected 350 newcomer and refugee women fleeing abusive relationships with the supports and services they need to rebuild their lives. The YWCA Axis program pairs participants with an advisor who speaks the same language as them and, in many cases, also understands the cultural differences participants must deal with. “I decided to travel to another country to survive,” said Misha, an abuse survivor originally from Iran who CTV News has agreed to only identify by her first name.
