PETITION TO THE MINISTER OF CITIZENSHIP AND IMMIGRATION.
In view of the massacres of innocent citizens, including women and children at Lusignan on January 26 and at Bartica on February 17,2008, the fact that security of Guyanese has been eroding since 2002 and the Government of Guyana has only now requested overseas help to protect its citizens, we the following individuals and organizations hereby request the Canadian Government to immediately review all cases of unsuccessful Guyanese Refugee Claimants; stop all removals to Guyana and allow the applicants to remain here on Humanitarian and Compassionate or other grounds.
I am currently communicating with legal representatives to ensure our request for a formal review reaches the appropriate officials in the Ministry. The testimonies provided by those who have signed this petition reinforce the necessity of our mission to protect vulnerable individuals.

The situation in Guyana is completely out of control. Send them back is basically a death sentence for some of these families.
