Show Notes
New report from Solutions Justes highlights challenges faced by migrant women experiencing domestic violence in Canada, particularly those from the LGBTQ+ community. The temporary residence permit for violence victims, introduced in 2019, is criticized for its unclear rules, short duration, and rare renewals. The lack of specialized lawyers and legal aid services in Quebec exacerbates the issue, leading to increased vulnerability and potential status loss. The report calls for more funding for immigration legal aid, reopening a Quebec City office, and better pay for private lawyers handling aid cases.
