I'm trying to help a friend get out of Turkey. I have no clue what the immigration process is like. He wants to immigrate to Canada. We've been gaming together on Path of Exile for the last few years and he is so worried about his country turning into an arab nation.

How hard is it to find a reputable immigration lawyer?

in seriousness, no, i don't. and i probably can't help you. but I don't think you need a lawyer unless there's some kind of special case. Is he claiming refugee status or coming in "normally"?

There's probably lots of info on how to get a visa and stuff on the Government of Canada website. Also Toronto is a sanctuary city, so if he gets there he can claim refugee status & the government will give him eleventy billion dollars for free.

I've been reading up on the government site...its pretty confusing. Maybe you are right about that. Maybe he just needs to book a ticket here and don't leave when he gets here. I would love to tell him some real concrete info. He's a good kid that just wants to get out.

What exactly is he worried about? Turkey turning into an "arab" nation? Have large numbers of people from arab nations been migrating there? News to me if so.

Turkey has been turning into a shit hole lately and things are changing. It's no wonder why he wants out. The shit of it is they are in NATO, have nukes and are have the best military in all that sand pit shit land there.
