Afghan interpreters served with Canadian soldiers and provided critical translation and cultural support. Their lives are now in immediate danger as a result of their service to Canada.

Now that the United States and NATO are completing their withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Taliban is quickly regaining control of the country. Interpreters who supported Canadian troops have already faced attacks and violence from the Taliban, which is expected to worsen in the coming weeks. 

The Afghan-Canadian Interpreters Association has so far identified 115 former interpreters, cultural advisers, and locally employed people who require Canada's protection. 

These interpreters and their families are no longer safe in Afghanistan and need to be transported to Canada immediately. Sign the petition and call your MP!
