48-year-old bisexual man, Charles Mwangi, living in Toronto, has been granted a one-year temporary resident permit by Canadian authorities, halting his planned deportation to Kenya. Mwangi, who had faced death threats and abuse in his home country before moving to Canada in 2019, will now have his humanitarian and compassionate application reviewed. His supporters, including the Migrant Workers Alliance for Change, called the outcome "a victory for migrant and queer justice" and urged the Canadian government to protect undocumented people and appeal to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to regularize all undocumented individuals.
