I did contact..and wrote my concerns.
However, what we need is more people coming forward and raising this issue as this is a legitimate concern. Only problem with us even as a nation is that we never unite....YET we can sit on these forums and complain about how New Delhi processes applications in 3 months.!!
Here is the comment which my spouce post at the website of CP24 a local tv chanel
I really appreciate CP24's efforts in bringing Pakistan's catastrophic situation to world’s attention. It seems that the whole world including the great Canada is not realizing the grave danger Pakistan is in. I hope your efforts become fruitful and people realize that this is one of the biggest disasters ever.
I being a Canadian Pakistani is really worried about my loved ones back home, and especially my newlywed wife. The immigration process in Pakistan is the slowest in the world. It takes almost year and sometimes more than that for a spouse to come to Canada. I think family reunion and especially in case of a spouse should be the top priority like it is in many other countries.
But unfortunately Canada's immigration policy for Pakistan is really cruel. I have been living without my newlywed wife for almost 8 months now and still I don’t know what’s going to happen.
I would like CP24 to please address this issue and we must never forget that after the flood lives of the Pakistan's are in great danger as there are numerous diseases spreading. They don’t even have clean water to drink. The great Canada should think about it and send a special immigration team to make the immigration process really fast as they did for Haiti and other countries.
