A Canadian woman who is entering the last month of her pregnancy was finally able to return home to Canada, after the federal government granted last-minute Temporary Resident Visas to her soon-to-be adopted Haitian children. She had hoped to return to Canada earlier in her pregnancy due to concerns that she might not be able to access emergency medical care. But she had been told by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) that her two Haitian children couldn't return to Canada with her because their adoptions aren't finalized. In pre-pandemic circumstances, Wallace would have been able to obtain travel visas for the children as their legal guardian. The immigration minister's office told the family that the IRCC is unable to provide a timeline for when they'll be able to return.
