The immigration status of victims of family or domestic violence often depends on the abusive spouse;

Canada has created a temporary resident permit for victims of family violence, which allows victims to escape their situation and which gives them a new future;

The temporary resident permit for victims of family violence has four eligibility requirements, including "experiencing abuse or neglect by your spouse or common-law partner (your abuser) while in Canada”;

Victims of family or domestic violence who experienced violence in Canada but were able to leave the abusive relationship while in Canada are regularly excluded from making a request because of this requirement, which puts them in a vulnerable situation; and

Family violence can continue even after the relationship ends, which is known as post-separation abuse.

We, the undersigned,citizens of Canada,call upon theMinister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenshipto:1. Review the eligibility requirements and directives of the temporary resident permit for victims of family violence in order to further protect victims during and after their relationship with an abusive spouse; and2. Review the complexity of the process for the temporary resident permit for victims of family violence in order to simplify and speed up immigration requests. 1.

The government’s “AI for All” Strategy (published June 4, 2026) encourages heavy adoption of AI by businesses without considering the probable impacts on Canadian job numbers;

The Strategy earmarks $200 billion in taxpayer money for a speculative and unproven technology;

The Strategy fails to address the environmental and climate impacts of 60% AI adoption by 2034; and

The Strategy aims to “provide access to trusted AI agents for every post-secondary student” while disregarding the likely consequences to educational standards (i.e. widespread AI-enabled cheating).

We, the undersigned,citizens and residents of Canada, call upon theGovernment of Canadato: 1. Immediately conduct a study of the Strategy’s likely impact on short-term and long-term Canadian job numbers; 2. If a net job loss is forecasted, rework the Strategy to prioritize job preservation and creation for Canadians; 3. Commit the $200 billion in stages, with subsequent investment dependent on real, tangible benefits for Canadians, and prioritize Canadian-owned, Canadian-housed servers; 4. Undertake a rigorous scientific assessment of the likely environmental and climate impacts of 60% AI adoption by 2034; 5. Work closely with the academic sector to ensure meaningful educational standards are maintained; 6. Uphold Canada’s national mandate to “foster and promote the study and enjoyment of, and the production of works in, the arts,” and protect the interests of Canadian creators against mass-produced AI content; and 7. Weighing all projected negative impacts (economic, educational, social, and environmental) against projected benefits, reassess whether there is a clear mandate for the Strategy, or whether it should be revoked or modified.
