Southern Afghanistan: Combat Troops

Sharifi Dept: Just days after going public in the Sunday Star with his fears of being abandoned as the last Canadians pull out of southern Afghanistan this month, Sayed Shah Sharifi got word that he can have a visa to immigrate to Canada, according to The Star. It told him to call an official from the International Organization for Migration, an intergovernmental agency that helps bring endangered Afghans to Canada and vANCOUVER—Canada has finally kept its promise to a brave Afghan interpreter who served alongside Canadian combat troops in Kandahar. Shah, 23, was sitting at the front gate of his family’s Kandahar home, with his brother and two cousins, when his cellphone beeped Saturday morning with the text message that not only changed his life, but may well have saved it. As reported in the news.
