Aeroplan-funded flights set to bring Ukrainians to Canada delayed until June

“We don’t want to launch a program where those pieces are not set up in place,” said Freedman, whose organization has worked previously with Canadian non-profits and collaborated with resettlement efforts for Afghans with the U.S. government.The Aeroplan points collection launched in collaboration with the Canadian government has collected more than 144 million points so far, according to Air Canada. The airline said that total includes its 100 million points donation announced on April 20.

The role of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada in this initiative is to ensure that Ukrainian nationals have the necessary documentation, such as approval for the Canada-Ukraine authorization for emergency travel program.The program provides access to three-year temporary residency for Ukrainians and their immediate family. According to the latest data, 104,553 people have been approved.

Opposition parties have said the two-pronged approach is ineffective and Ottawa should arrange more charter flights quickly. The Bloc Quebecois also called for additional charter flights, with immigration critic Alexis Brunelle-Duceppe saying he felt the government tried to “buy time” by announcing the deal with the charities while doing “absolutely nothing” to ease the logistical burden.Canada has opened its doors for war-ravaged Ukrainians. Does it have the capacity?
