The MP delivered a
letter asking for help, not the application.
Quote:
She did say that a her local MP, New Democrat Fin Donnelly, personally delivered a letter to Chris Alexander asking for help from his office for young Alan Kurdi and his family.
The department of Foreign Affairs released a statement Thursday saying Mohammad Kurdi’s application was received, but was “returned as it was incomplete as it did not meet regulatory requirements for proof of refugee status recognition.”
“There was no record of an application received for Mr Abdullah Kurdi and his family.”
Donnelly, however, said the family had indeed pursued refugee status for the Kurdis and his letter reflected that. There was no immediate word whether the government got the request. Donnelly couldn’t be immediately reached for comment following Tima Kurdi’s news conference.
