>> RALLY AGAINST BILL C-24

The Conservative government has passed a controversial bill in the name of strengthening the citizenship which in reality gives absolute power to the immigration minister to revoke citizenship of new Canadians. It’s a warning sign for those who have dual citizenships and therefore we need to raise our voice against such draconian law which is highly uncalled for. While on one hand this government has apologized for the Komagata Maru incident that happened 100 years ago, on the other it continues to attack the rights of the immigrants by making it harder for them to bring their parents and grandparents to Canada, by making citizenship test difficult and challenging and opening doors for temporary foreign workers – who are vulnerable to exploitation.

SATURDAY July 5th
5pm at Holland Park
King George Highway and 100 Avenue, Surrey, BC

Organized by Radical Desi and People’s Voice
