Focus on refugee and immigrant families: action

Reuniting families is a key objective of Canada’s immigration program, but too often families are kept apart. Focus on refugee and immigrant families is a one page document highlighting what Canada must do to renew its focus on families on critical issues including:

  • Long delays for refugee family reunification
  • Cutting off and leaving behind family members
  • Creating equal opportunities and fair chances to be reunited with family in Canada
  • Ensuring greater flexibility to prioritize reuniting families in times of urgent need
