Quebec family facing deportation gets reprieve following community backlash

The Figg family has been living in Canada for more than 15 years, raising six children – four of whom were born here. But when their work visa expired, they were told they had just two weeks to pack up and leave the country. After an outpouring of community support and a petition calling for them to stay, they’ve now been granted a reprieve while they apply for an extension to their visitor permits. Alice and Brent Figg spoke to Andrew Carter.
