Somalian Alberta Turf War Shows No End

He came to Alberta looking to pay for university, instead allegedly finding drugs and bad friends. Now, his slain body will lay in Alberta forever, his name marked on a long list of dead young Somali-Canadian men. Abdinasir Abdulkadir Dirie wont make it to first-year university this fall, the kind of prosperous future his father sought for his family when he immigrated. I thought Canada is a peace country. (It offered) a future for my life, my children. This is a very bad thing.said Abdulkadir Tarambi, the 19-year-olds father. Abdulkadir Dirie was a native of Toronto. He was set to study computer science at York University in the fall, and saw prosperous Alberta as a way to pay for it, said Tarambi. (Young people) heard in Alberta you can get an easy job, get a lot of money, said Tarambi. In August 2008, he moved to Edmonton, staying with his older brother in Edmonton and working at Tim Hortons. Then he headed to Fort McMurray with an oil and gas job. By January, he was in trouble. According to the RCMP, Abdulkadir Dirie was arrested alongside four other young men, including a minor, in a Fort McMurray apartment Jan. 22. All were charged with possession of cocaine for trafficking and possession of proceeds of crime under $5,000. Abdulkadir Dirie was released on $500 bail, while his alleged associates paid thousands to be released. The last time his family heard from Abdulkadir Dirie was April 20, said family friend Mohamed Mohamed. Abdulkadir Dirie told his mother, as he often repeated, that he was coming home. Hed even bought a ticket, said Mohamed. Abdulkadir Diries body was found April 21 in an apartment on McDonald Avenue.

Somalians caught up in Alberta Turf Wars

Yet again, the victims were born in Somalia but raised in Toronto. Yet again, the victims appear to have had links to a bustling drug trade between Ontario and Alberta. Yet again, police have no suspects. On Feb. 17, Idiris Abess, 23, and Saed Adad, 22, were found dead in Hillside Manor, a downtown Fort McMurray apartment building notorious for drug-dealing and prostitution, according to current and former residents.

Somalians caught up in Alberta Turf Wars, K'naan speaks

Somali-Canadians from Ontario are being gunned down at an alarming rate in Alberta. Police blame the drug trade. Many of the deaths have been public execution-style slayings, family members say. "It seems like they want to send out a message, like, do not come near us," Mahmoud said. Alberta police agree, saying some of the killings have been "a message to Toronto," the CBC's John Lancaster reported.

Who really killed Abdinasir Dirie? A heart-rending story from inside Canada's Somali community. In the 1990s, Abdinasir Dirie's parents fled civil war in Somalia for the apparent peace and safety of Canada. Years later, G Baby, as his family called him, made his own way from the rough streets of Toronto's Jamestown Cres. (Doomstown) neighbourhood to the oilfields of Alberta looking for riches and good fortune. There, he died and his murder remains unsolved, like so many other murders of young Somali-Canadians. The extra twist in this case: some members of his family are convinced they know who committed the crime. Hear from the family of Abdinasir Dirie as the fifth estate explores the searing pain of their struggle and peels back the layers of a story even more complicated than anyone originally expected.

Canadian Somali Congress comments on the deportation of Somalis from Canada to Somalia

CBC news item examining the difficulties faced by the Canadian government as it attempts to deport dozens of individuals from Canada to Somalia. It is not certain that the Canadian government will be able to complete these deportations because it outsources the job to Kenyan agents who do not observe basic human rights standards and who have exposed these deportees to lethal danger in Somalia. The difficulty is that deportation to certain violent parts of Somalia is tantamount to a death sentence. Canadian courts have disallowed the release of these men into Canadian society but at the same time they cannot be easily deported to certain parts of Somalia due to anarchy and generalized violence. In addition to this, the two regional governments of Puntland and Somaliland have stopped accepting any more deportees from Canada.

Canadian Somali Congress comments on deportations of Somalis from Canada

On the day that Omar Ahmed, a young Somali man living in Ottawa, was deported to Somalia by Canadian authorities, the Canadian Somali Congress provided input to a CBC Radio program that examined the difficulties faced by the Canadian government as it attempts to deport individuals back to Somalia. It is not certain that the Canadian government will be able to complete the deportation process for Mr. Ahmed and others because they outsource the job to Kenyan agents who do not observe basic human rights standards and expose these men to lethal danger in Somalia. There are 11 young Somali men who are set to be deported to Somalia and who have lost their permanent residency in Canada due to serious and repeated criminality. The difficulty is that deportation to certain parts of Somalia is tantamount to a death sentence. The courts have already disallowed the release of these men into Canadian society but at the same time they cannot be easily deported to certain parts of Somalia due to anarchy and generalized violence. In addition to this, the two regional governments of Puntland and Somaliland have stopped accepting any more deportees from Canada. This means that the young men are in legal limbo and continue to remain in indefinite detention long after serving their initial sentences.

Canadian Somali Congress President participates in a panel discussion on Canadian Somalis part1.flv

Canadian Somali Congress President participates in a panel discussion on Alberta's failure to fully integrate Canadian Somalis The vast majority of Somalis in Canada are no longer immigrants but are Canadian citizens. Canadian Somali Congress National President Ahmed Hussen talks about Albertas failure to fully integrate young Canadian Somalis. Issues such as integration, self-help and fair treatment were discussed. Ahmed Hussen spoke about the fact that the vast majority of Somalis in Canada have either been born in this country or have lived here for decades and as such, cannot be accurately classified as immigrants or newcomers. Due to this fact, the Canadian Somali community does not need more immigrant settlement services. What is desperately needed is for policy makers to shift their perception of this community and see them as Canadian citizens with rights and responsibilities. This would allow for the provision of integration services such as access to jobs and professions that would enable Canadian Somalis to enjoy the fruits of the mainstream. This panel discussion was produced by the daily current affairs show Alberta Prime Time.

CBC Radio International program on the ongoing case of Canadian Somali Bashir Makhtal.avi

CBC Radio International's program on the ongoing case of Canadian Somali Bashir Makhtal. Canadian Somali Congress calls on the Canadian government to suspend the $100 million in non-humanitarian aid to Ethiopia until that government releases Mr. Makhtal. The Ethiopian government has engaged in the serious abuse of Mr. Makhtal's human rights including denying him medical attention, the right to a fair trial and the right to adequate legal representation. Mr. Makhtal is in failing health and is now serving a life sentence prison term after an unfair trial on what the Canadian government agrees are trumped up charges. The Canadian government has stated that they believe in his innocence. He stands accused of providing support to an opposition group in Ethiopia. However, given the profoundly unfair nature of the legal proceedings, the basis of those accusations have never been made clear and no credible evidence in support of the charges has ever been made public. Instead, much of the basis of the case has seemed to stem from the mere fact that Mr. Makhtal's grandfather was once an Ogadeni leader. Canadian Somali Congress has repeatedly called on the Ethiopian authorities to release Mr. Makhtal given that he received an unfair trial.

Canadian Somali Congress President interviewed by Nil Koksal of CBC News as part of a television series entitled "Canadian Dream." The series examines the successes and challenges that face different communities in Canada. This particular segment centered on the successes and challenges of the Canadian Somali community. The vast majority of Somalis in Canada are no longer immigrants but are Canadian citizens. Despite this fact, various levels of government and the mainstream community mistakenly continue to view Canadian Somalis as immigrants or recently-arrived refugees. This is evidenced by the fact that emphasis is placed on immigrant settlement services and language programs for a community that settled in this country decades ago. The real need of the community is integration into the Canadian mainstream. This can be achieved by a policy shift that emphasizes access to jobs and professions. Nowhere is this shift more needed than in Alberta where 30 young Canadian Somalis have been killed in the last 5 years. Despite the high number of deaths in Alberta, Ahmed Hussen noted that the vast majority of Canadian Somali youth are law abiding and productive citizens who are graduating from post-secondary institutions in record numbers.

CBC Interview regarding the socio-economic challenges facing the Canadian Somali community.avi

The trial of two men accused of killing Mohamed Ali Ibrahim, a Somali-Canadian man gunned down two years ago, has began in Edmonton, Alberta. This is the first trial in a string of murder cases involving young Canadian Somali victims. More than 30 young Canadian Somali men have died in Alberta in the last three years. There is concern in the community that this first trial is being undermined by intimidation, witness tampering, perjury and obstruction of justice. What are the factors that have contributed to the high number of deaths of young Canadian Somali men in Alberta? Are these deaths related to the fact that Somalis in Canada lag behind other groups in terms of socio-economic development? What can be done to integrate the community, especially its youth, into mainstream jobs and professions? What can be done to improve the lives of these young men in Canada to ensure that they do not fall victim to the lure of gangs? What is the Canadian Somali community doing to make sure that their youth have opportunities? These and other issues such as the Canadian Somali Jewish Mentorship Project were discussed in the CBC Radio program Metro Morning on November 4, 2010. The CBC's Matt Galloway interviewed Ahmed Hussen. He is the national president of the Canadian Somali Congress.

CBC interview regarding the Mohamed Ibrahim case

On the eve of the verdict in the trial of two men accused of killing Mohamed Ali Ibrahim, a Somali-Canadian man gunned down two years ago, CBC radio's Karen Horseman spoke to Ahmed Hussen, president of the Canadian Somali Congress, about the difficulties with witnesses faced during the trial and the fact that as the first trial in a string of murder cases involving young Canadian Somali victims, the family of the victim and the community were seeking justice to be done in this case. More than 30 young Canadian Somali men have died in Alberta in the last three years. Later in the day, judge Paul Belzil, found Adam Michael Brown and Alexander Reid guilty of second-degree murder in the slaying of Mohamed Ibrahim, 24, outside the River Cree Casino west of Edmonton. The guilty decision was met with audible relief from Ibrahim's mother, Fouzia Mohamed, and members of Edmonton's Somali community who surrounded her in the courtroom. In Canada, murder convictions carry an automatic life sentence.
