The Yazidi people are a Kurdish minority living in Iraq and Syria who are targeted by ISIS for genocide and have been the victims of horrific acts of violence.
However, the Canadian government is processing these refugees in the same fashion as others, despite the evidence that they are, literally, being wiped out. In order to prevent this genocide Canada must fast-track Yazidi refugees into the country and preserve this ethnic minority.
Sign now to stand up for Yazidi refugees. By signing today you are sending a strong message that Canada has a role to play in preventing genocide of the Yazidi.

To Minister McCallum,
As a person who is greatly concerned with all peoples I urge you to create a fast-track for Yazidi refugees into Canada. The Yazidi people are, literally, being wiped out by ISIS and Canada is doing nothing to prevent this genocide nor is Canada allowing more refugees into the country from this group.
Canada must act to fast track the refugee process for Yazidi refugees before it is too late and this ancient ethnic group is wiped out by ISIS militants.
