municipality: Communities can expect an increase in arrivals to begin in mid-September, a federal government news release says, according to CTV. The refugees will be placed in communities throughout the country in the coming weeks as work to process them has continued over the summer. About 6,000 more government-supported refugees will be arriving by the end of December. In Chatham-Kent, the municipality was approved to become a "Welcoming Community" through a partnership settlement plan process. "Chatham-Kent will work with the local Resettlement Assistance Program service provider organizations in Windsor and London to help refugees resettling in their municipality. Privately sponsored refugees whose cases have been finalized will also be arriving. This provides access to community services and supports to help these newcomers adjust to life in Canada," the release says.
