From me and @reesormcdowell today @OttawaCitizen: Canada needs a national plan that includes the energy and expertise of community orgs to ensure refugee claimants get the support they need as soon as possible in their time in Canada - and we’ll all benefit. @refugee613
Opinion: Refugee claimants in Ottawa need not be homeless ottawacitizen.com/opinion/op…

The Mennonites have been helping refugees resettle to Canada for 100 year: from Ukrainians in 1920s to Vietnamese & Cambodians in 1979 or Syrians now They know Canada can make an even bigger difference This is why they ask @marcomendicino to do more ▶️ mcccanada.ca/sites/mcccanada…

This little baby is 2 months old. She has been on the caravan since she was three weeks. A mother would only take her three week old baby on such a treacherous trip if staying home meant death. 📸@KishaBari
