The Canadian government and associated authorities are trying their level best to assist with the movement of Afghans directly into the Maple country’s terrain all while the Taliban have gained back control of their nation.

All those Afghans who provided crucial assistance to Canadian troops shall be permitted to be an essential part of an immigration program that has solely been created for them.

The party that was in the deadline position in Canadian elections i.e. the Liberal Party of Canada made a solid commitment on Friday through a public platform that they would aid with the resettlement of Afghan refugees up to a population number of 20,000.

The primary attention and spotlight would be shed towards those groups considered to be highly sensitive and vulnerable like human rights defenders, women, LGBTQIA+ members, persecuted religious groups present in minorities, family members of interpreters who had previously resettled within the country as well as journalists.

All those Afghans who have been in the process of escaping the Taliban shall be offered quick help provided the Canadian authorities are able to act on their commitments. 4th of August witnessed the first plane consisting of Government-aided refugees landing in the country. All the passengers had to undergo strict screening for the presence of the coronavirus as well as potential admissibility into the nation on the basis of their security, criminality background as well as personal health status.

This constantly upsurging emergency deemed situation in Afghanistan could eventually turn up into emerging as a major campaign impactful issue which could keep continuing till the Canadian elections which have been scheduled for the 20th of September.

Ever since the terrible attacks of 9/11, Canada joined forces with the U.S.-led mission prevalent in Afganistan between the period of 2001-2014. A total of approximately 21,000 Afghan refugees were aided with resettlement between the period of 2001 to June this year as per data released by the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

There seem to be some common ground factors existing between this current upsurge of the Afghan Taliban situation as well as the Syrian Refugee situation which impacted the Canadian elections taking place back in the year 2015.

Back in September 2015, every Canadian’s inner thoughts and feelings garnered massive compassion and emotional torment when they became aware of the body of Alan Kurdi, a three-year-old child who was washed back onshore all while his family was trying to escape the clutches of the Syrian war. The general public was hell-bent and pressed and constantly convinced the Liberals to offer assistance to a total of about 25,000 Syrian refugees and after one month, they got voted to the leading election entity.

Just a few days ago, Canadians were alerted about the shocking retaking of the Afghanistan territory by the Taliban owing to video footage of gruesome events such as Afghans falling off planes just so they could procure some safety haven, only to fall back into the clutches of their tormentors.

Quite contrary to the crisis situation period back in 2015, this year-round Canadians have already made singular promises to assist with the resettlement of potential refugees well in advance of the elections beginning in pace. On the other hand, a few parties fighting in opposing roles such as the National Democratic Party (NDP) and the Conservative Party of Canada will be forced to demonstrate how exactly they plan to offer aid to this widespread humanitarian emergency situation unfolding in the Afghanistani territory. Only this might help them build up a picture of possible governmental roles they may play if they turn out to be winning parties.

Even though it is very rare for foreign policies and immigration-related issues to form any major impact over Canadian elections, this Taliban crisis of Afghanistan will definitely work towards sparking up significant commotion during this election period by September 2021.
