Organizing to Reunite Palestinians from Gaza with their Families in Canada
note: although this webinar is specific to Canada, it is included on the calendar because there is a lot of overlap between how the Canadian and US Governments treat Palestinians
In this webinar you will learn, through the stories of Palestinians, how Canada's response to calls for family reunification was designed to fail Palestinians trying to flee Gaza and Israel's genocide. You will also learn about the key takeaways from CJPME's new report on the Gaza Visa and anti-Palestinian racism. Finally we will discuss what you can do to pressure the Federal government to fix the Temporary Resident Visa program and ensure we reunite families and save lives.
Speakers include Safinaz El-Solh and Israa Alsaafin (Gazan Families Reunification League), Debbie Rachlis (Immigration Lawyer), and Alex Paterson (Senior Director of Parliamentary Affairs and lead author of CJPME's latest report on the Gaza Visa Program).
Webinar hosted by CJPME’s Wissam El Cheikh Hassan.
