Last month a Saudi teenager named Rahaf Mohammed Alqunun fled her family by jumping on a flight to Thailand.
Then, after having her passport taken away by a Saudi diplomat, leaving her stranded in Bangkok, she began making appeals for asylum on Twitter.
Alqunun said that if she returned to her family, she would face abuse, persecution and maybe even death, after renouncing Islam.
Her tweets for help from a Bangkok hotel room trended internationally, and to the Canadian government.
Never ones to pass up an opportunity to virtue signal to the rest of the world about what do-gooders they are, they granted Alqunun asylum and had her land on Canadian soil in an astounding eight days.
When she landed at Toronto's Pearson airport, the spectacle was enormous. Global Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland hung off the girl and paraded her around in front of the media like a partisan prop.
I wanted to know how that debacle came to be and, how Alqunun managed to receive warp speed service from both Global Affairs and Citizenship and Immigration Canada while Yazidis languished for 15 months in immigration purgatory, and persecuted Pakistani Christian Asia Bibi spent three dangerous months waiting for Canada to intervene on her behalf.
I filed a Freedom of Information request with both ministries to:
“...provide copies of all documents including emails, memos, briefing notes, communication plans, Q&As, media lines, text and or instant messages, waivers etc regarding the planning and preparation for the arrival at Toronto Pearson airport of Rahaf Mohammed Alqunun, and the presence of the Minister of Foreign Affairs to welcome her, covering the time from January 1st 2019 to January 14th 2019.”
Today I'll show you the responses I received from each, about one week apart.
And in both cases, I didn't get information. I got stonewalled.
Conveniently, both ministries are taking an extension beyond the statutory 30 days to provide the information.
Instead of one month, it will be a total of seven months before we know how Alqunun got the help she needed so quickly to escape Islamic extremists, while so many other women, did not.
Freeland even falsely introduced Ms. Mohammed as a “new Canadian”.
Rahaf Mohammed didn’t appreciate how she was being used as cheap, partisan prop for the Trudeau regime (complete with a UN cap and Canada hoodie!).
She had no legal representation present to advise her prior to her pre-planned, staged debut.
Freeland’s job performance as Minister of Foreign Affairs has been poor and even embarrassing to Canada, so she staged a event designed to improve public perception of her (obviously with Trudeau’s prior knowledge & consent).
What more could we expect from someone whose only professional experience is as a part-time high school drama teacher?
Pathetic.
Ron:
Nothing about these muslim “refugees” makes any sense apart from the fact that they come here to take and offer NOTHING in return.
;;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-;-Roger that… And if you say anything you’re a racist a bigot and a hater..!! The funny thing is is that most of them are military age males and family reunification’s… But you’re right none of this makes sense unless the obvious outcome is right behind door number one.
Nothing about these muslim “refugees” makes any sense apart from the fact that they come here to take and offer NOTHING in return. Does anybody recall Adolf Hitl…. I mean, Trudeau state, “Canada needs immigrants to bolster our economy” speech about two years ago? Listen to the hypocrisy behind those words. Yes, Canada does need immigrants to boost our economy but how do you boost the economy when the immigrants arriving refuse to work and rely on the taxpayer to fully support them? I’m not an economist but common sense tells me that this is not the way to boost and strengthen an economy but rather a great way to destroy it. A can of Tuna has a higher IQ than Trudeau.

As professed by Just in Trudeauce when ever He mistakenly believes the Bias will not be read by Anglo-Canadian Cultural & Values Citizens; the smearedia pf Central Canada knows and doesn’t give a darnation. Justin is really only protecting His & Princess Sofie’s future when another misinformation gaffe gives him a chance to meet his Wish as President of Quebec.
In China they are forcing Muslims to eat pork to show that they are integrated and loyal to China. Alqunun renounced Islam. Give her a ham and cheese sandwich and watch what happens next; will she or won’t she take a bite and swallow.
Let me see: Christian under threat of death? Three months and counting. Other religious refugees who aren’t Muslim (and under attack by Muslims)? Takes more than a year, and no more allowed. Muslim teen taking a hissy fit? From start to finish eight days. And when she gets here she is part of a media circus with red shoes Freeland and a $50,000 support cheque waiting for her.
Meanwhile, back in the real world, Freeland isn’t doing much about Canadians held in China or about the clause she missed in the USMCA where Mexico – and not Canada – is exempt from restrictions on US government contracts. Probably was too busy handing out Popsicles to the press standing in the street on a hot summer day in Washington, or publicly insulting Trump. What a useless ditz she is.
Isn’t this Liberal government supposed to be the most transparent Canadian government in our history? Please, don’t tell me that King Baby Doc Trudeau (Peace Be Upon Him/Piece of Ass Be Near Him) lied to his minions!

Dave, I appreciate that story. What I find difficult to understand is why did they lie when Trudeau loves Muslims more than Christians?
The answer may be that when you are sponsored, you receive individual attention, eg. English lessons, your favorite food, private room ect..

She gets 24 hr. protection in Canada at our expense. Why can’t we bring in normal people that may have religion, but it doesn’t run shotgun over their daily movements?
I love the free speech aspect of THEREBEL…
I hate the fact that because of the free speech aspect, trolls, and egoists pollute this site as they take total advantage with their ego and vanity stroking BS and fill up that space with their virtue signaling and trolling crap!
It’s enough to make a man want to kick Voltaire in the nuts…
This is the kind of between-a-rock-and-a-hard-place-morality the left just doesn’t get!
The left has no honour…or integrity…or morals…or principles…and how can you if you are a moral relativist!
If we don’t effectively deal with the irrational and delusional demon spawn on the left…they WILL be dealing with us!
Recently I learned that a group of Syrian “christians” arrived in Canada but it has now been revealed that they were all muslims and nothing is being done about the fact that they LIED to come here. They mislead the very people who sponsored them and took their money and resources that have been handed to them under false pretenses.
If lying is a requirement in islam then what assurances do we have that what comes out of these people’s mouths is true? If there are no penalties for muslims who lie to come to Canada then who exactly is arriving on a daily basis? Do we have conclusive evidence that ISIS is NOT setting up camps across this nation knowing that they are immune to our laws and will not be deported? If the CONVICTED terrorist Khadr was “rewarded” for his terrorist acts then who else is about to win the “terrorist lottery” in Canada? Am I being paranoid here or is there truth to anything I have just stated?
I wish you all the best.
