The Canadian government is booting permanent residents out of the country. Yes, you read that right. Because of a discriminatory law passed by the Harper Conservatives, refugees granted permanent residency in Canada can be stripped of their status and removed from the country if they ever set foot in the homelands they fled.

Refugees who become immigrants should be treated like any other immigrant who comes to Canada: they should feel safe and secure with their permanent status. Immigration lawyers, judges, and even Federal Court Justices agree: this current practice is shockingly discriminatory. It has Harper written all over it - and we have a plan to stop it.
