Toronto Star – ‘This Is Our Only Hope’: Undocumented Migrants Risk Arrest to Make Their Case in Ottawa
The federal government has been developing a regularization plan — one of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s mandates for Immigration Minister Sean Fraser since December — to address the issue of undocumented workers in precarious and exploitative jobs, and tackle an underground economy. The town hall scheduled for Monday at an undisclosed venue in Ottawa is a final push to lobby parliamentarians to go for an “uncapped and inclusive” plan that can benefit as many of those who have fallen through the cracks and out of status in the complex and at times disjointed immigration system.

Globe and Mail – Fundraising Concert Raises $12,000 for Ukrainian Refugee Flights
Roman Lakhnyuk began volunteering as a translator at a couple of refugee centres in Warsaw. He soon met another Canadian volunteer, Bruce Callow, and they began talking about the Ukrainians they’d met who had received Canadian visas but couldn’t afford the airfare.

Toronto Star – Expect Court Challenges to Law Banning Non-Canadians from Buying Property
