On June 20, National Bishop Susan Johnson of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC) and Archbishop and Primate Linda Nicholls of the Anglican Church of Canada, wrote a letter to the Minister of Immigration, Refugee, and Citizenship calling on the Government of Canada for a comprehensive regularization program for undocumented persons.

The Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS) hopes that the regularization program proposed by the Trudeau government in 2021 will be extended to all. In doing so, temporary foreign workers, international students and non-status persons will be able to contribute fully to the social and economic life of Canada and flourish. As a community of faith, we advocate for greater equality and humanism for foreigners. Please join in writing a letter to Immigration Minister Sean Fraser to ensure that this plea is heard.
