Welcoming Canada's 20,000th Afghan refugee since August 2021

September 23, 2022

On Thursday, September 23, 2022, at Toronto Pearson International Airport, I joined colleague MPs Ali Ehsassi and Leah Taylor Roy to welcome 348 government-assisted Afghan refugees arriving in Canada on a charter flight from the United Arab Emirates.

With the arrival of this flight, Canada marks an important milestone by welcoming our 20,000th Afghan refugee since August 2021.
