We Are Jose is a non-partisan campaign to reverse Jose Figueroa’s unjust deportation order of May 2010. Jose Figueroa is a Salvadoran-Canadian living in Langley, B.C. He’s married, a loving father of three and a productive member of the community. He has lived in Canada for over 15 years. Jose and Ivania came to Canada as a refugees over 15 years ago, as he faced danger, having spoken out against a repressive military dictatorship during a violent civil war in El Salvador. Canada accepted him on these grounds, but then, 13 years later, the government decided they want to deport him for the same reason he was originally permitted into Canada. And this simply does not make any sense.
