CTV News – Judge Grants Stay of Deportation for Quebec ‘Guardian Angel’ Mamadou Konate
A Montreal janitor who was facing a deportation order to Ivory Coast will get to stay in Quebec a little longer after a human rights lawyer’s efforts to keep him in Canada seem to have worked — at least for now. Known as one of Quebec’s “guardian angels” for working in long-term care homes at the height of the COVID-19 crisis, Mamadou Konaté fought the deportation order over fears his life would be in danger. His lawyer, Stewart Istvanffy, confirmed to Noovo Info on Wednesday that a judge granted a stay of deportation.
Radio-Canada – Protection du français: cibler l’immigration avec la loi 101
Alors que l’Assemblée nationale entamera bientôt l’étude détaillée du projet de loi 96, la loi visant à mieux protéger la langue française, plusieurs experts considèrent que la portée d’un tel geste est limitée. Au-delà de la révision de la loi 101, l’avenir du français au Québec passe d’abord et avant tout par une politique d’immigration renforcée, estiment plusieurs démographes.
La Presse – Urgence démographique. De « voleurs de jobs » à sauveurs
Auparavant dénoncés comme des « voleurs de jobs », les immigrants ont vu leur image faire un virage à 180 degrés dans l’imaginaire populaire : ils sont désormais considérés comme faisant partie de la solution à cette urgence démographique. Cet automne, Québec cherche à recruter plus de 4000 travailleurs de la santé à l’étranger, surtout des infirmières – des chiffres jamais vus jusqu’ici.
Globe and Mail – Afghan Refugees, Fearing Canada Has Abandoned Them, Dig in for a Hard Winter in Overseas Purgatory
Months after the Liberal government announced immigration measures aimed at resettling tens of thousands of Afghan nationals, many of those who believed they were eligible now find themselves in increasingly desperate situations while they wait for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to approve their applications. Some are stuck in third countries. Those still in Afghanistan are bracing for a harsh winter as the country’s new rulers struggle to keep the population fed.
Toronto Star – Syrian Refugee Family to Be Reunited in Harriston
Two Syrian brothers are finally reuniting after years of being separated from each other as the Minto Refugee Settlement Committee successfully sponsored another Syrian family to Harriston. Five years ago, Ahmad and Henan Almohamed and their family left a refugee camp in Turkey and arrived in Harriston after escaping the violence in their war-torn homeland. They were the first refugee family the committee ever sponsored. Now, it’s Ahmad’s brother, Obid Almohamed, and his family’s turn.
Toronto Star – Canada Is Refusing More Study Permits. Is New AI Technology to Blame?
Soheil Moghadam applied twice for a study permit for a postgraduate program in Canada, only to be refused with an explanation that read like a templated answer. His Canadian lawyer, Zeynab Ziaie, said that in the past couple of years, she has noticed a growing number of study permit refusals like Moghadam’s. The internal notes made by officers reveal only generic analyses based on cookie-cutter language and often have nothing to do with the particular evidence presented by the applicant.
