  2. Only a limited number of refugees destined to Canada receive a pre-departure orientation funded by Citizenship and Immigration Canada or le Ministère de Relations avec les Citoyens et de l'Immigration;
Therefore be it resolved

That the CCR strongly urge Citizenship and Immigration Canada and le Ministère de Relations avec les Citoyens et de l'Immigration to expand the Canadian and Québec Orientation Abroad Program to all of the refugee processing posts.
