On eve of election, Kenney finds $100k for queer refugees

My third piece up today on the national page of Xtra.ca is a story about an announcement made by the immigration minister this morning in advance of an election campaign. Fortunately, I have a great deal of knowledge when it comes to the issue of queer refugees, thanks to the many stories I've written on the topic, and I was able to not only get responses from the people involved, but also had enough background on the subject of queer groups and private sponsorship (thanks to the story I wrote back in July) that I could get some actual critical content to the story, and before any other media outlet could get their own story up.
