Seidu Mohammed told MPs on the finance committee Thursday morning that the bill 'would put a lot of people at risk.'A man from Ghana who lost all his fingers to frostbite after crossing irregularly into Manitoba is pleading with MPs not to pass new refugee rules in the government’s budget bill.
Both he and the man he was travelling with, Razak Iyal, who also lost fingers to frostbite, had previously had their asylum claims rejected in the United States before coming to Canada. “Deporting me back to Ghana would destroy my life. I would be imprisoned or tortured to death,” he told the committee. “I don’t want this to happen to anybody.”
