This December 2015, the Canadian government will bring in the first group of Syrian refugees fleeing the crisis to Toronto. Please join us in throwing them a welcome party at Pearson International Airport! 

As Canadians of diverse identities, backgrounds and spiritual paths, we want to join hands in showing these refugees some love and creating a positive first experience the moment they land in Canada.

We've seen how other countries have welcomed refugees and because this is Canada, we want to show the world that we are truly the most diverse, pluralistic and beautiful land. 

Our diversity is our strength and we feel there is no better way of showing that than to open our arms and be welcoming. 

IMPORTANT NOTE
We are communicating with authorities on the date and time of arrival for the refugees. Please stay tuned for updates.
