Podcasts about qunun

Recorded 13 February 2019 Saudi teen Rahaf al Qunun captured world attention when she barricaded herself in a Bangkok hotel room and claimed asylum. Within days, the UN refugee agency (UNHCR) had determined she was a refugee and Canada rapidly offered to resettle her. Between 2015 and 2017, Australia resettled a ‘special intake’ of 12,000 Syrian and Iraqi refugees. This was a different, but no less important, emergency resettlement response to pressing humanitarian needs. Both these cases show how countries can help refugees in urgent need of protection, thereby demonstrating international solidarity and responsibility-sharing. But how, why and when do governments decide to offer resettlement – and to whom? Join our expert panel discussion to find out more. - Sophie McNeill, the ABC journalist who interviewed Rahaf al Qunun in her hotel room and just days after her arrival in Canada - Khanh Hoang, a UNHCR Senior Protection Assistant with unique insights into how resettlement options work - Dr Claire Higgins, a Senior Research Associate at the Kaldor Centre, with expertise on Australia’s special humanitarian intake process

In this episode, Iman and Raazia discuss their most recently watched movies, as usual. However, they quickly dive into the interesting story of Rahaf Al-Qunun, an 18 year old Saudi women that sought asylum in Canada.

Famed broadcaster Sue Prestedge joins Scott Radley, to share her insight on the top stories of the week. Get ready for the weekend and the bad weather with the Brightest Conversation in Hamilton! Guest: Sue Prestedge

Canada’s welcoming of Rahaf al-Qunun as a “brave new (Saudi-)Canadian” controversially sets the precedent that renouncing Islam and claiming to be a victim of domestic violence can potentially get anyone refugee status.

It's another TVUH Triple Shot. Three things in the last week or so that deserve being "addressed" on the show. Well, at least I think so and since I produce the show... guess what. The Retirement - After seven Federal election wins, twice Minister with two different governments and his largest margin of victory in 2015, Scott Brison has retired effective immediately as Minister and MP. A trailblazer for the LGBTQ2 community who was part of reforming Canada's sexual orientation laws out of the 19th century. The first openly gay Minister in Canada's history. But that means another Cabinet Shuffle, in an election year. Three moves and two rookies added to make up for the loss of one, which generates its own storylines depending which brand you ask. And what about the trial of Vice-Admiral Mark Norman, which Brison will have to testify at? Is it a factor in the timing here? The Refugee - Rahaf Mohammed al-Qunun became internationally known in a hurry. A Saudi citizen, she flew from Kuwait to Thailand to escape her family. Having flown without suitable "escort" the Saudi Embassy told Thai officials to seize her passport and deport her back to Saudi Arabia. Then a funny thing happened. Social media around the world made her a symbol against the Kingdom. The UNHCR requested Canada to accept Rahaf as a refugee. Canada said yes. Not to sell the LPC brand. To sell the Canada the world expects. The Raid - On December 15, 2018 the BC Supreme Court granted an injuction in a CIVIL SUIT to bypass proper process and allow Coastal GasLink access to Wet'suwet'en Territory. Because saying NO is not allowed in this nation of "reconciliation" when corporate gain is involved. On January 7, 2019 the RCMP performed their historically primary function. Colonialism. Is this a "new relationship"? Is this implementing the TRC? Is this UNDRIP? No, it's the same old Canada.

God called Moses to leave the desert he was hiding in and command Pharaoh to free the Hebrew slaves, not all the slaves, just the ones defended from Jacob. God also hardens Pharaoh's heart, not to be confused with coronary artery disease, this just made sure that Pharaoh would be stubborn. To punish Pharaoh for his God caused obstinance God took it out on the Egyptian people with plagues they were: He turned all of the water into bloodFrogsLiceWild animals, probably of a venomous varietyDiseases for the livestockBoilsHail stormLocustThree days of darknessDeath if the firstborn humans and livestock The frogs and lice seem strange and really just annoying, but the rest of these are really serious. Contaminated water would make everyone sick. An invasion of venomous creatures could injure or kill everyone. Diseased livestock will reduce productivity in the case of horses and oxen, cut into food supply, and if the disease crosses to humans it could kill everyone. Boils are painful and can get infected. Hail and locust will destroy crops. Prolonged darkness is evidence of volcanic activity and could threaten crops. I think venomous creatures and dead babies obvious, but any if these plagues could cause the collapse of a civilization. More recent examples are the bubonic plague killing ⅓ of Europe's pollution, the diseases brought to the new world killing 90% of the population of the indigenous peoples of the Americas, the Potato Famine, and pioneer stories of locusts blacking out the sky and striping fields bare. NEWS Mecca's Grand Mosque under attack by locusts The holiest site in Islam is being plagued by swarms of locusts, an estimated 30,000 black grasshoppers to be precise. I predict that Christian's will call this God's judgement on Islam, Iran will call it God's judgement on Saudi Arabia, and Sunni Muslims it call it insect migration. Rahaf al-Qunun has made it to Canada Rahaf al-Qunun is the 18 year old daughter of a Saudi Arabian government official and while visiting Kuwait with family she escaped hoping on a plane to Australia with a stop in Bangkok. The reason for the escape was that she wanted to be free to work and study as she wants, which is not possible in Saudi Arabia since her father would be her guardian until she gets married. She's endured physical and emotional abuse from her parents, including being locked in her room for six months because she cut her hair. And she has renounced Islam which is punishable by death. When she reached Bangkok a Saudi diplomat met her at the gate and took her passport which then left her stuck in the international terminal of an airport without any papers. The Thai authorities wanted to send her back to her family, but she was able to barricade herself in a hotel room. The UN High Commissioner for Refugees became aware of the situation because of her pleas for help on Twitter. In the end she was granted asylum in Canada by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and was greeted at the Toronto airport by Chrystia Freeland, the Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister. China passes law to make Islam 'compatible with socialism'  We've been tracking for several months now China's actions against the county's Uighur Muslims.

Saudi teen Rahaf Mohammed al-Qunun who was granted asylum in Canada after fleeing from her allegedly abusive family pledged on Tuesday to fight for the freedom of other less fortunate women in a public statement to media in Toronto. “Today… »

Saba Abbas of COSTI Immigrant Services reads in English the statement by Rahaf Mohammed al-Qunun during a press conference by the runaway Saudi teenager in Toronto, Canada.

On our plate for this episode…. Eye on Islam While on vacation with her family in Kuwait, 18-year old Rahaf al-Qunun escaped in a bid to seek asylum in Australia. Detained by Thai authorities at the request of the Barbaric State, social media put pressure on Thai immigration officials to rescind their original decision to repatriate her into the clutches of her patriarchal family. Now she's on her way to Canada, and that makes me very proud of this great nation. In an era where social media is all too often used to punish those who do not meet ideological purity tests, this is a win. Pressure from the Council on American-Islamic Relations has forced Amazon to remove certain products including door and bath mats they deemed offensive as they were imprinted with Islamic calligraphy, references to the Prophet Muhammad and Quranic scripture. I'd be more conciliatory to this had CAIR kept its big mouth shut and not said some very disturbing things. Married women in the Barbaric State of KSA rejoice! You can get the news that your husband has divorced you via a text message. How progressive! (I'm not making this up.) Catholic Watch The anti-Christ has been revealed! The head of the Russian Orthodox Church says the data-gathering capacity of devices such as smartphones risks bringing humanity closer to his arrival. Too late! Google is already here. Here we go again…. German cardinal Walter Brandmüller makes the claim that homosexuality is to blame for the Catholic Church's predatory priest scandals. We unpack what he has to say in terms of not only his premises, but to their logical conclusions, ones he won't like at all. The Regressive Left Files More fallout from the “Sokal Squared” debacle. Portland State University doubles down and brings up charges of ethical misconduct because…. Wait for it! Peter Boghossian did not seek prior institutional approval for the use of human subjects in the “grievance studies” hoax. I kid you not. Heavyweights such as Robert Sopalsky and Steven Pinker get behind Peter in support.

Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland welcomed 18 year old Rahaf Mohammed Alqunun to Canada after she touched down at Pearson International Airport in Toronto. Canada granted asylum status to Alqunun on Friday.

The Roy Green Show Podcast - Earlier this week in court in Saskatchewan, Jaskarit Singh Sidhu pleaded guilty to all 29 charges related to the horrific crash between his B-train semi-truck and a bus carrying the Humboldt Broncos junior hockey team.  The families of all who lost their lives or were injured in the collision will now be spared a trial, which Sidhu's lawyer suggests is what Sidhu wanted. Roy talks to Scott Thomas, a father who lost his son in the crash. Later, Roy asks Scott Newark what sentence might Jaskarit Singh Sidhu expect, and how much influence will Victims' Impact Statements might have on the sentencing? Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said nothing of significance about Canada's oil industry and energy sector, while in Regina earlier in the week. He also said nothing reassuring to foreign investors who have written to him, urging him to support the oil sands. All the while, there remains the issue of the rights of First Nations, regarding pipeline construction and natural resources development.  Our guest argues that the planned convoy of trucks from Red Deer, Alberta, to Ottawa, to deliver a noisy protest against federal policies and legislation placed in the way of pipelines is the wrong approach. Roy speaks with Ken Coates, to find out why he believes there should instead be a massive convoy of tanker trucks, filled to the brim with oil, making their way to Alberta and deliver that oil to Vancouver. Canada granted asylum to a Saudi teen who fled alleged family abuse. The teen's claim is she is being abused by her family and if she had been forced to return, she would have been killed.  The UN declared Rahaf al-Qunun a refugee and requested Australia take her in, then the UN withdrew its request of Australia and now she is in Canada. What is the story here? Guests: Scott Thomas, Father of Evan Thomas, who played for the Humboldt Broncos Scott Newark, former Alberta Crown prosecutor, professor at SFU, former senior policy advisor to a federal Minister for Public Safety, former executive director for the Canadian Police Association Ken Coates, Canada Research Chair in Regional Innovation, Johnson Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy, University of Saskatchewan. Bill Simpson, Contributor to EnergyNow, teaches pipeline codes and regulations for the North American Standards Assessment Corp. Richard Kurland, Immigration lawyer in Vancouver.

The Saudi teenager Rahaf al-Qunun was spared deportation after details of her plight were spread on social media while she barricaded herself in a hotel room in Thailand. She feared being killed by her family if she was forced to return to Kuwait. She was saved not by her passport but by her phone, observes Jonathan Head. Kate Adie introduces this and other stories from correspondents around the world: Olivia Acland reflects on why the people of the Democratic Republic of Congo may have to wait a little longer than expected to celebrate their country’s first ever democratic transfer of power. Nick Sturdee examines the split between the Ukrainian and Russian branches of the Orthodox church and has a strange encounter involving a black-robed priest, alleged KGB stooges and a mysterious man in a white car. Jane Wakefield has a glimpse of what may turn out to be the future – drones delivering much-needed medicines and other supplies to remote African villages. And Rob Cameron uncovers a disturbing secret about Prague’s cobblestoned streets.

Canada has accepted the asylum request of an 18-year-old Saudi Arabian woman, Rahaf Mohammed al-Qunun, after she successfully resisted - through a Twitter campaign - being deported from Thailand back to the conservative kingdom. She had fled an abusive family situation at home, and the UNHCR ruled she was a refugee. The case has drawn attention to the plight of women in Saudi Arabia, many of whom are forced to live under a guardianship system where male relatives make all significant decisions for women. Providing analysis from Beirut is Heba Kanso, the Middle East correspondent for the Thomson Reuters Foundation, who has been writing about the case.
