So honoured to work with our new ⁦@ccrweb⁩ elected leaders! Asma Faizi Elected President of the Canadian Council for Refugees | Canadian Council for Refugees ccrweb.ca/en/asma-faizi-…

Refugees in Africa waiting to be resettled to 🇨🇦wait more than those in any other region. This inequity reflects systemic racism. With political commitment we can ensure every family has an equal opportunity for safety. Read our @ccrweb report! #Refugees #cdnpoli

This is a critical week to make your voice heard. MPs will vote on one of the most dangerous pieces of legislation to threaten migrant and refugee rights that we have seen in years. Let your representative know you want them to say no— this is not the Canada we want. @ccrweb

We reject leaders who point the finger at newcomers for our struggles while chipping away at the healthcare and services we all need and letting housing prices spiral. Let's build a Canada where we can all thrive. Sign up for campaign updates: BetterTogetherCanada.ca/Take-Action

Thank you @AmiraElghawaby for your leadership and solidarity on this important issue! @ccrweb looks forward to continued collaboration.

It’s time to create a massive wave: We are proud to be a country that welcomes immigrant and refugees and we expect our leaders to carry on that legacy. Because in Canada, we know We’re Better together! Stand with us. @ccrweb

CCR President Diana Gallego, and Co-Executive Directors @GauriSreenivas1 and Lauren Lallemand were pleased to meet with the Honourable Minister @LenaMetlegeDiab in Ottawa. CCR underscored our valued relationship with IRCC and raised key concerns in the sector.

Canada’s 🇨🇦 complicity in genocide must end. So much more action is needed; but this is the very minimum. Please write to the PM @MarkJCarney today. #Refugees #cdnpol #ArmsEmbargoNow

Neighbours is a campaign by @ccrweb & @lushcosmetics built on the belief that 🇨🇦 should be a place of welcome, belonging & justice for all. @GauriSreenivas1 & Carleen Pickard discuss via @rabbleca Media, contact Sreenivasan @ bit.ly/3tbAOsZ rabble.ca/podcast/resili…

Volunteers setting up cots for wildfire evacuees…some just arrived in Canada days ago. Asylum claimants who once slept on Red Cross cots themselves. Now helping Manitobans forced from their homes by fire. That’s compassion. That’s One Manitoba.

At LUSH facilities this morning talking with staff and media about the joint “neighbours” campaign with @ccrweb in retail stores now. Making resilient bath bombs and calling for action for a Canada where we all belong . #RefugeesWelcome

Les membres du CCR sont également impliqués dans la campagne, organisant leurs propres événements de tables d’exposition dans les magasins LUSH, établissant un lien avec le personnel et les clients de LUSH. Voici des photos du @WeCoBien à Montréal et de @CartyHouse à Ottawa!
