The Honourable Marc Miller, P.C., M.P.
Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship
RE: Pause on G5 sponsorships and reduction in levels for Privately Sponsored Refugees
Dear Minister,
I am writing to communicate the strong disappointment of the Canadian Council for Refugees at your decision to close the Group of 5 (G5) and Community sponsorship programs to new applications until 2026.
