Hi everyone, my name is Marc Esso and I'm starting this petition to STOP my Mother Mirna Khalil, My Brother Mathieu Esso, and My deportation back to Lebanon. We currently live in Hamilton, Ontario, My Brother and I attend St. Thomas More CSS for over a year and a half. Two years ago, we applied for refugee and the immigration refused our case and they gave us a deportation order, meanwhile we applied for the humanitarian and compassionate case and we want a chance for the government to hear our case before we get deported back. During our stay in Canada, my dad had to leave to another country to support us. In Lebanon,it is unsafe, my brother and I cannot go back to school due to a new law, and no one from my family lives there any more, all that including Lebanon's bad economy. Unlike Canada, where my mom works, my brother and my future is bright as a doctor and an engineer, and all my cousins, aunts and uncles live here, and most important is that it is safe. all we ask is a chance for our humanitarian case to be heard by stopping the deportation which is on July 20th, 2015 thank you.

From St, Peter's Hospital I ask you to have the sympathy for Mirna, Marc and Mathieu to stay in Canada. Three smart, intelligent people deserve to stay in Canada, This is what makes Canada a good country to live at.
How can we deport this family back to their war-torn country and who is contributing to our society, yet we allow criminals to stay here? Disgusting! Let's do what is right and just here!
My boy Marc and his family make this country so much better. I tutored with Marc and he touched so many kids and he will touch so many others. That's a fact and this family is amazing
Stop Deportation of our Cousins, they belong in Canada where their All the closest relatives live for Years we urge the immigration Minister to reconsider and accept Based on a Humanitarian Family reuniin please and thanks.
beautiful family, great people. Very hard working, respectful and ethical. I had the honour to meet this family a few months ago and proud to call them friends. I really pray that they will receive the chance they deserve to be happy in Canada and be able to call canada their home just like the rest of us do. God bless this family.
God bless!
don't deport these poor people

It is so easy to destroy but hard to build! This family found a safe place to stay, a promising future and a job for the mom...deportation means the destruction of their future. Let them study and learn and they will give it all back to benefit this country.
