Minister @AnitaAnandMP named four pillars for Canada-Türkiye relations. The fourth: people-to-people ties. Minister, we are that pillar. Three years of work, taxes, school runs. This week, while you are in Ankara, our permits keep counting down.
#ExtendTS2023@MarkJCarney
A stronger Canada–Türkiye future should include the families already living that connection every day.
We work here.
We raise our children here.
We belong to this community.
Extend TS2023.

Minister @shafqatalimp,
We asked in English.
We asked in French.
Today we ask in Urdu.
Not because the other languages failed, but because some words carry their full weight only in the language a mother spoke.
A small suitcase understands every language.
#ExtendTS2023
Now that’s interesting and bold!
Applicants asking for #TS2023 Work Permit extensions are reaching out to Minister @shafqatalimp in his mother tongue. They hope a leader who once arrived in Canada with just a suitcase will relate to their struggle.
If Canada can create temporary transitions for other crisis-affected communities, TS2023 families deserve to know why their crisis ends at an expiry date.
