Montreal protesters urge Ottawa to halt Haiti deportations after travel advisory
MONTREAL — A Haitian asylum seeker who fled violence at home says he’s worried about being sent back, especially as the situation in his country deteriorates due to civil unrest.
Claude, who would not give his real name for fear of reprisal, said he came to Canada after criminals ransacked his home and threatened his wife and children.
“They charged me ransoms, came to my place and looted my home,” he said Saturday.
“Thanks to God they did not rape my wife and kids, my daughter.”
