Early last week, after the heart-wrenching photo of three year old Alan Kurdi’s body lying on the shores of Turkey dominated headlines, Port Moody-Coquitlam NDP candidate Fin Donnelly told the media he hand delivered an appeal for Kurdi’s family to come to Canada directly to Citizenship and Immigration Minister Chris Alexander.
Donnelly explained Alexander said he would look into it, and says the application was declined in June.
However, it later came out that the application was actually made for Alan’s uncle, not Alan’s immediate family.
Speaking to Drex, on Drex Live earlier tonight, Donnelly would not admit he made a mistake when speaking to the public...
