Citizenship And Immigration: Public Outrage

Immigration Minister Dept: The Maeng family’s story attracted national attention because federal officials had said the family had to leave Canada by June 30 because providing health care and social services for 14-year-old Sung-Joo would put too much strain on the system, according to The Star. In Ottawa, the senior Citizenship and Immigration Canada source confirmed the four-member family will be allowed to stay in Canada to continue the process of seeking permanent residency. He said Kenney’s department couldn’t act until Thursday when it received New Brunswick’s commitment in writing. The source spoke on the condition of anonymity because of privacy issues surrounding the case and mONCTON, N.B.—Immigration Minister Jason Kenney will rescind a deportation order for a South Korean family at the centre of a growing public protest in New Brunswick now that the province has confirmed it will cover health costs associated with the family’s autistic son, a federal source confirmed Thursday. But the New Brunswick government has responded to growing public outrage by handing a private letter to the Moncton family confirming the province will cover the costs. As reported in the news.
