致尊敬的特魯多總理先生的信

 

關於立即取消父母擔保限額 & 縮短審理時間之請願

 

尊敬的特魯多總理先生,

                我們,加拿大的新老移民,

讚賞你履行大選時的諾言,將父母/祖父母擔保年限額從5000 增加至10,000;

讚賞你身著唐裝,慶祝中國新年,傳遞您認可移民及其家庭的信息;

讚賞你努力建設一個更加強大,更加和諧的加拿大.

                然而,我們希望您注意以下情況:

1. 前政府施行的父母/祖父母擔保項目的暫停,爾後每年設收取申請上限,十分著名,一直以來在嚴重玷汙加拿大人道同情的傳統. 以求”經濟發展”為由而犧牲數十萬移民家庭的團聚是不人道的行為;
2. 2016年5000 個年申請上限,後來由您和您的政府增加至10,000個申請,證明是遠遠不夠的. 根據報道,CPCM (移民部密西沙加案件處理中心)僅在新年第一周便收到14,000份申請,讓4000 甚至更多的家庭與他們的父母/祖父母失望之至, 為時起碼一年, 在移民中形成一個惡性循環, 而他們與其他移民一樣對加拿大做著貢獻.
3. 更有甚者, 那些”幸運”成功將申請擠入上限的擔保人的父母擔保(包括上限設置前的)申請的處理時間, 由前一任政府刻意延長,等待時間超過4年或者以上. 如此漫長的等待見證了許多家庭失去一個,有的甚至兩個老人,剝奪了移民家庭其應得並及時享受家庭團聚的生活.

毋庸再敘加拿大家庭,家庭價值和家庭團聚的道理,我們特此提出請願,要求你的和你的政府即刻作出以下變革:

1. 取消接受父母/祖父母擔保申請的年上限,恢複正常接受此類申請. 那樣, 擔保父母/祖父母的家庭就可以確定,隻要他們符合申請要求,他們的長輩早晚會與他們在加拿大團聚, 而不是當成”猴子”,首先要緊張地關注他們的申請能否及時為CPCM接收;
2. 縮短CPCM及海外使領館簽證處的處理時間. 目前海外處理配偶擔保的總時間在12個月左右,父母/祖父母擔保的申請的處理時間可以花費24個月, 那是可以理解的. 在前政府之前,大致情況就是那樣.也就是說, 移民部有可能恢複已往審理時間甚至能夠做得更好. 再長的延緩就會給移民及其家人帶來痛苦,不可接受,難以忍受的痛苦.

 

尊敬的總理先生, 我們去年給你和你的政府投了選票,部分是由於你的親民思想,你的家庭價值觀,而前政府被選掉了,部分是因為其犧牲了移民及其家人的根本利益.

尊敬的總理先生, 在2015年令人難忘的大選中,您傾聽了呼聲,做出了變革的承諾,就職後在十分光榮地履行這些承諾. 我們堅信,此次您會及時反應,將父母/祖父母申請項目中讓人不齒的上限和悠長的恥辱成為曆史.

Letter to Hon. Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister

Petition for Immediate Cap Removal & Fastening Processing of Parental Sponsorships

Hon. Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister,

                We, old and new immigrants in Canada, 

hail you for your keeping of the election promise of increasing the famous annual cap of 5000  to 10,000 parents / grandparents sponsorship applications;

hail you for your celebrating the Chinese Spring Festival in traditional Tang-style coat, a sign of recognition of the immigrants and their families;

hail you for your efforts to build a stronger and more harmonious Canada.

                However, we wish to draw your attention to the following:

1. The well-known suspension, then the annual cap of the parents / grandparents sponsorship program, imposed by the former government, has been composing a serious insult of the Canadian humanitarian and compassionate tradition, as it is something inhuman to aim at “economic growth” at the cost of sacrificing family reunions of hundreds and thousands of immigrant families;
2. The 2016 5,000 application yearly cap, then increased to 10,000 by you and your government, turns out to be far from enough, as 14,000 sponsorship applications were reportedly received by the Case Procession Centre in Mississauga in the first week only of the New Year, leaving 4,000 or even much more families and their parents or grandparents deeply disappointed, for at least another year, constituting a vicious cycle among the immigrant families who do not make less contributions to the building of Canada;
3. Moreover, the processing time for the parental sponsorship applications of the “lucky” sponsors who ended in squeezing into the cap or even before the cap imposition, was deliberately slowed down by the previous government, making the wait longer than 4 or even more years. And that wait has witnessed quite some families which lost one or even two deaths of parents or grandparents, depriving the immigrant families the deserved and timely enjoyment of reunited family life.

                Without reintegrating the altruisms of significances of family, family values and family reunifications in Canada, we hereby petition that you and your government immediately make the following changes:

1. Lifting the annual cap of parent / grandparent sponsorship applications and restoring the regular reception of sponsorship applications. That way, the sponsoring families know for sure that their parents / grandparents can join them in Canada sooner or later,  as long as they meet the selection criteria, instead of being made like “monkeys” worrying first about rushing their applications received by CPC Mississauga in a timely manner;
2. Shortening the processing time of parental sponsorship application first by CPC Mississauga, then by overseas visa offices. Now the overseas spousal sponsorships take CIC around 12 months in total, and parental sponsorships could understandably take up to 24 months. It was something like that before the former government, meaning, it is possible for Immigration Canada to do the same or even better. Longer delays would cause pains in immigrants and their families, unacceptable and intolerable ones.

Honorable Prime Minister, last year we voted for you and your government because of, among other things, your patriotism, and your family value, while the former government was voted out partly because of its sacrifice of the fundamental interests of the immigrants and their families.

Honorable Prime Minister, during the unforgettable 2015 election, you listened, promised for changes, and you have been honorably and decently reacted after taking the office. It is our firm belief that you react promptly this time, making the shameful cap and lengthy delay in parental sponsorships a history.
