Canada opened its doors after the earthquake. Today, thousands are working, contributing, and building a future here. Now they risk losing everything. This isn’t about charity. It’s about a fair and compassionate transition. 📝 Sign the petition. Stand for what’s right. ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/P…

You’re entitled to your opinion but not to label people as “fake” based on assumptions. A few anecdotes don’t define thousands of people. And “houses were built” doesn’t mean lives are restored overnight. Jobs, income, stability, and children’s education don’t magically reset because buildings exist. Also, let’s be clear: Advocating for policy change isn’t “breaking the rules” it’s how democratic systems work. If everything was as simple as “time’s up, go back,” there would be no need for case reviews, no need for discretion, and no need for public input at all. Reality is more complex than that. You don’t have to agree but reducing real people’s situations to “fake victims” isn’t a serious argument.

@alidemircan You are contradicting yourself. I don't have time for your biased opinion. I am entitled to my opinion. The TR gov. built hundreds of thousands of houses; those who came from TR due to the earthquake can easily return to their lives in TR We don't need more fake victims

@HalciArzu17210 What you’re doing isn’t defending Rule of Law. You’re just trying to simplify it to fit your opinion.

@HalciArzu17210 Also, you don’t decide how the law is applied. You don’t interpret it. And you don’t enforce it. Governments do within a legal framework that already includes humanitarian discretion.

@HalciArzu17210 Canada is a rule-of-law country — not a place where personal opinions override legal standards.

@xcCc12341234 Canadian law itself requires officers to assess: • Humanitarian and compassionate grounds • The real-life impact of removal • The best interests of any child affected That’s not a “special shortcut.” That’s the law. Here’s the decision: scc-csc.lexum.com/scc-csc/scc-cs…

@xcCc12341234 This means: If people have built lives here, are working, paying taxes, and raising children in Canada, their situation cannot be reduced to “just follow the rules and leave.”

@xcCc12341234 This is exactly why an extension matters: not to “reward failure,” but to give people a fair and realistic chance to meet the system’s requirements. This is about policy realism not deflection.

@xcCc12341234 The first 1–1.5 years were spent adapting—finding jobs, understanding the system, starting from zero. The remaining time simply isn’t enough to reach high language benchmarks like CELPIP 8–9, which even experienced multilinguals struggle with.

@xcCc12341234 Nice. Curious though—did those 3 languages ever translate into a CELPIP 8–9? And how long did it take to actually reach that level?

@alidemircan Canada gave them three years to settle down? What they did to get their PR in those 3 years? Most of the PGWP holder students or any others getting their PR less then 3 years including their studies years. So what they will do if they get extended if they didn’t anything yet???
