Toronto Advocates: Cent Shortfall and Cbc Toronto

toronto advocates: With more refugees pouring in, Toronto advocates ringing alarms about federal funding But while it's not known yet exactly which services will be cut to address the organization's 40 per cent shortfall in its immigration and refugee program, many are worried about the impact on refugees as the organization makes its case for additional provincial and federal support, according to CBC. When I say that the cuts will be devastating, I mean that literally they could result in a return to persecution, torture or death, Osgoode Hall law professor Sean Rehaag told CBC Toronto. The mounting concern comes as the arm's-length provincial agency launches a consultation process to look into what it calls the difficult choice to temporarily suspend some of the services, beginning July 1. LAO is using a really problematic negotiating tactic here. LAO would never bargain with a vulnerable population. Rising demand for refugee services a 'reality' Legal Aid Ontario disputes that.
