Jewish Canadian groups urge Ottawa to fix Palestinian student permit delays
Original: Jewish Canadian groups and the Palestinian Students and Scholars at Risk Network hold a virtual news conference to call
Jewish Canadian organizations and the Palestinian Students and Scholars at Risk Network are holding a virtual news conference to press the federal government to resolve lengthy study permit delays affecting Palestinian graduate students already admitted to Canadian universities. The joint call highlights growing concern that students admitted to Canadian programs remain unable to begin their studies, and that the backlog is leaving vulnerable scholars in limbo.
Why now: The unusual joint appeal by Jewish and Palestinian groups is drawing attention to prolonged federal study permit delays affecting admitted Palestinian graduate students.
