He’d been living in Canada his entire adult life, and with his Canadian wife, Sophia Papp, since 2023.</p><p>Sophia has been given the devastating choice to remain in Canada without her spouse or relocate to <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Pakistan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Pakistan</span></a> , where she doesn’t speak the language and faces significant barriers to her health and wellbeing.</p><p>A mere 48 hours before Zain was deported, he and Sophia’s Spousal Sponsorship application was rejected by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) without substantive explanation.</p><p>The couple’s lawyer, Randall Cohn, has stated that this eleventh-hour rejection is likely illegal. It also denied Zain and Sophia’s right to procedural fairness, since they didn’t have time to access the appeal process enshrined in the <a href="https://beige.party/tags/BillOfRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BillOfRights</span></a>.</p><p>Zain and Sophia’s situation is reminiscent of the <a href="https://beige.party/tags/unethical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>unethical</span></a> treatment of many <a href="https://beige.party/tags/migrants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>migrants</span></a> in the U.S.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/IRCC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IRCC</span></a> ’s last minute rejection of a young couple’s Sponsorship Application without substantive reason should raise alarm bells for anyone of conscience, but especially for those with a <a href="https://beige.party/tags/legal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>legal</span></a> background – and before getting into <a href="https://beige.party/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> , Minister Diab was a <a href="https://beige.party/tags/lawyer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lawyer</span></a> in Halifax.

The shooter motivated by hatred got 9.5 years, but will actually be in prison for half that time.

Fellow #Autist #ChrisPackham was part of the #RestoreNatureNow protest on 6/22/2024!

#GretaThunberg is far from the only #neurodivergent #ClimateActivist – many who see the world differently also want to change it

Published: October 23, 2023 10:58am EDT

"Amid her calls for governments to act on climate change, Swedish activist Greta Thunberg has spoken openly about her Asperger’s syndrome and obsessive-compulsive disorder. She is not the only environmental campaigner to speak about being neurodivergent (having a neurological condition or disability) – something Thunberg describes as her 'superpower'.

"In the UK, naturalists #ChrisPackham and #DaraMcAnulty have both discussed their autism. Packham has said that it has been 'enormously beneficial' to his career.

"In my doctoral research, I interviewed 23 youth activists, conservation workers and environmentalists to examine the link between nature experiences and mental health in an era of climate breakdown. My findings shed light on the motivations and intentions of neurodivergent people who work in the environmental and conservation sector, as well as those who are drawn to climate activism.

"Many of my participants had been diagnosed with mental health, psychiatric and neurological conditions including autism, #ADHD and #bipolar disorder. They reported finding community and a sense of purpose in the #environmental #activism movement and through a connection with #nature."
