Cancer, a pandemic, and the government of Canada couldn’t stop us forever.

Finally Mrs. Taylor.

@SadiqKhan how has COVID impacted energy and waste targets for this year ? How are targets suspected to change in order to make London carbon neutral ?

@miss_sarah_c ❤️

[Dr. David Edward-Ooi Poon MD MPH CCFP FRCPC @FacesofAdvocacy]

We thank @CitImmCanada for hitting the minimum target of 50 approvals/day.

We hope that those who submitted on the first two days will be prioritized and processed in the promised 14 business days. There is 6 business days left for those applicants.

Let’s get it done.

[Pope of Muskanity @RationalEtienne]

@FacesofAdvocacy Look, I've been waiting to live with my future wife for almost 2 years. If I could wait 700 days, I can wait 7 days longer.

Put yourself in others' shoes. They're finally getting reunited with their loved ones. Let's cheer the fuck out of them. ❤️

We are tracking all known *internal group* submissions & approvals. To display the transparency that we desire from @CitImmCanada, here is a graph to show date of submission + rates of approval. The authorized numbers are from last night; we will continue to update today.

[Dr. David Edward-Ooi Poon MD MPH CCFP FRCPC @FacesofAdvocacy]

End of day internal group approvals:

37 approvals

-19 USA
-13 eTA
-5 visitor visa

All time approvals: 75

Keep in mind these are our internal numbers & are lower than official stats. We have asked IRCC for their numbers. Keep pushing, keep pressing. We are on our way.

[Samar Casaneanu 🇬🇧❤️🇨🇦 @SCasaneanu]

None for you @marcomendicino , not until more of us are approved.

[Samar Casaneanu 🇬🇧❤️🇨🇦 @SCasaneanu]

Ugh, yet another day. @marcomendicino almost the end of the business day. I’m really starting to think y’all should consider approving more of us, don’t you want happy people being happy in happy Canada ? @CanBorder @CitImmCanada #LoveIsNotTourism

[Samar Casaneanu 🇬🇧❤️🇨🇦 @SCasaneanu]

@RaquelDancho you stood up for us when we needed you most ! If you could just peek at what they’re doing over there and report back, I’ll bake cookies for all of The Conservative party. #LoveIsNotTourism ( and the IRCC ) @CanBorder @CitImmCanada

[Sarah Taylor @mrs_sarah_tea]

@FacesofAdvocacy Thank you for making such a huge effort to track what you can within the group so people at least have an idea of what’s being approved!!

[Dr. David Edward-Ooi Poon MD MPH CCFP FRCPC @FacesofAdvocacy]

A disclaimer that I feel needs clarifying - we have, in all our press and statements, mentioned that these numbers we are posting are internal group polling. We know we don't catch everyone. We just need to highlight the progress we do see and hope for regular published numbers.

[Dr. David Edward-Ooi Poon MD MPH CCFP FRCPC @FacesofAdvocacy]

As of 12:30pm EST we are tracking 10 extended family approvals:

3 eTA
6 USA
1 visa

This is far from the 25 half-day marker we want to see. Keep pressing on. #TimeToReunite

[Dr. David Edward-Ooi Poon MD MPH CCFP FRCPC @FacesofAdvocacy]

We are unsure of IRCC’s exact process of approvals and can only speculate why some applications are being approved “out of order”. We are asking the right questions and will continue to keep the pressure on until we have a clear and fair process.

@marcomendicino @CitImmCanada

[Yas 🇧🇷🇮🇹❤🇮🇳in🇨🇦 @yas_jio]

Time matters when you wait for one year to be together with your partner. Please @marcomendicino, process all our applications within 14 business days. This is painful. We had suffered enough. @CitImmCanada we are with you!! Thank you for this!!

[Dr. David Edward-Ooi Poon MD MPH CCFP FRCPC @FacesofAdvocacy]

Those who submitted applications to be with extended family members on the first day the process opened have now been waiting almost 2 wks. With only 20 approved, we must see a major increase in approvals in order for the 14 business day promise to be kept. #MendicinoDontDelay

Boris Johnson is to update the nation later this afternoon amid the ongoing dispute over Tier 3 rules for Greater Manchester https://t.co/qbv1f8Q3es

[Samar Casaneanu 🇬🇧❤️🇨🇦 @SCasaneanu]

@BankeLaw @marcomendicino I don’t , but I’m praying so much I might as well start believing !

[Samar Casaneanu 🇬🇧❤️🇨🇦 @SCasaneanu]

So it’s the end of another business day in Canada. One more day I have to say “ I hope tomorrow’s the day “ . @marcomendicino all we can do is beg. So little approvals in already almost all the time. Even if I get approved last, please work your hardest. We are hurting everyday.

[Samar Casaneanu 🇬🇧❤️🇨🇦 @SCasaneanu]

@CitImmCanada Yey! More confirmations for the extended family applications eh ? @marcomendicino @FacesofAdvocacy #LoveIsNotTourism

[Alyssa 🇨🇦❤️��🇵 @Alyssa39323891]

We were happy to see an increase in approvals yesterday, @marcomendicino @CitImmCanada! If this truly is exponential, and if you're really going to meet the 14-business-day turnaround, there has to be a lot more today. Let's at least get everyone who applied Oct 8 approved today.
