Refugee Board and Conservative Government

Conservative government: The rally in front of the Immigration and Refugee Board headquarters on Victoria St. was one of 17 demonstrations held across Canada to condemn the cuts introduced by the Conservative government in June 2012, according to The Star. Our colleagues across Canada are saying, enough is enough. We are demanding the government reverse the cuts to refugee health insurance. We are not going away. We will continue to speak out for those who have endured horrible atrocities and Health professionals in Toronto marked Tuesdays third anniversary of the federal refugee health cuts by sending Ottawa a unanimous message: We are not going away. As long as cynical politicians use vulnerable groups such as refugees for soundbites and cheap political points, we will continue to demand change, Dr. Meb Rashid told 350 protesters in Toronto.
