Haiti - Quebec : The sponsorship of the victims of January 12, 2010 was a success 12/01/2012 14:44:28
"To date, this program has enabled more than 2,600 Haitian victims to settle permanently in Quebec," said Kathleen Weil, Minister of Immigration and Cultural Communities, on the eve of the commemoration of the January 12, 2010. "I want these people to find in Quebec favorable conditions to look forward with optimism. They can count on our support [...] The Special Programme for humanitarian sponsorship has been very popular," added the Minister, stating that the Ministry estimates to about 5,000 people, the total number of victims who will ultimately be received in Quebec, as part of this initiative, exceeding the original objective set at 3,000 people. It should be noted, moreover, that since January 2010, Québec has welcomed more than 8.400 Haitian nationals, all immigration categories combined (economic migrants, refugees, family reunion, special program). "I am very proud of the gestures of solidarity that the people of Quebec has made in the days and months after January 12, 2010. Today, we must continue this commitment of solidarity and responsibility, to accommodate these newcomers and their integration in Quebec," concluded Kathleen Weil.
