The refugee process has systemically become increasingly difficult over the 
last several years and there has been an increase in racial profiling of 
Muslim and Arab communities on arrival and throughout their time in Canada.  
Members of RARP will be talking about their struggles as refugee claimants 
in Canada and their fears of deportation.  The committee will share their 
stories as well as information of some of the organizing happening within 
effected communities in Vancouver to stop detentions and deportations.  
This is an opportunity to learn more about the campaign, the success of past 
actions and to find out what others can do to help.

REFUGEES AGAINST RACIAL PROFILING DEMAND:
