Where's Chrystia when you need her?

Wake up, Chrystia Freeland! There's a couple of Saudi gals stuck in Hong Kong who desperately need your help!

Reem and Rawan would dearly love to join Rahaf Mohammed as brave new Canadians!

And let's not stop there... there must be thousands, nay, tens of thousands of young Saudi women chafing under the oppressive yoke of their fundamentalist culture.

Maybe even millions!

And let's not stop with Saudi Arabia... or with pissed off teenage girls. Surely there must be some young lads out there who are unhappy with their lot in life and would seize the opportunity to become brave new Canadians.

I say, bring them in!


Alas, I fear that the value of future photo-ops drops precipitously with each brave new Canadian, and therefore Chrystia has only a limited number of brave-new-Canadian cards in her deck.
