Welcoming Afghan refugees

The recent humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan compelled thousands of people to flee their country.

In this context, the Government of Canada established measures and special programs to welcome Afghan refugees. If you have any questions or if you need assistance on this subject, you can write to the following email address: IRCC.SituationAfghanistan.IRCC@cic.gc.ca.

The Gouvernement du Québec is working in collaboration with the federal government to accelerate and facilitate the arrival of Afghan refugees in Québec. They are arriving as Québec government-assisted refugees.

The Gouvernement du Québec has committed to participating in the solidarity effort by welcoming Afghan refugees to its territory.

Participating in the solidarity effort for Afghan refugees

If you wish to contribute to the solidarity efforts by offering available housing or a job opportunity, for example, you may write to the following email address: AideRefugiesafghans@mifi.gouv.qc.ca.

You can also make a donation to the Red Cross, which has established an Afghanistan Humanitarian Crisis Appeal.

Welcome and settlement of Afghan refugees in Québec

Welcomed in one of the 14 Québec host cities, the Afghan refugees are accompanied by government partner organizations throughout the settlement and integration process.

To learn the details, go to the section Support during your settlement steps for Québec government-assisted refugees.
