Petition Text
Petition to the House of Commons
Whereas:
• In 2023, Bernivens Bernadotte, now 14 years old, left Haiti and came to Quebec to join his mother, Enive Bernadotte, who has been recognized as a refugee and is awaiting the granting of her permanent residence;
• Bernivens is included in his mother’s application for permanent residence; Since his arrival in Quebec, he has demonstrated remarkable resilience and capacity for integration, establishing himself in just two years as an active and valued member of his school and sports community in Longueuil;
• In 2025, Bernivens was selected to participate in the prestigious Real Madrid training camp, reserved for the world’s most promising young talents;
• Originally scheduled for the summer of 2025, his camp was postponed to the summer of 2026 due to his pending permanent residence application;
• To date, the Bernadotte family is still awaiting permanent residence and, without permanent residence status, Bernivens cannot travel to Spain as he would not be able to re-enter Canada upon his return;
We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of the Province of Quebec and other provinces of Canada,, call upon the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship to take urgent action in the Bernadotte family’s case by expediting the processing of their permanent residence application to allow Bernivens to fulfill his dream.
