After the fall of Afghanistan last summer, Weedmark worked tirelessly to help Sediqi and his family escape the country, as the Taliban wreaked vengeance upon all those who had helped Canada and our allies, including interpreters and their loved ones. After a huge effort, Sediqi and his family have now arrived in Canada to start their new life under the Special Measures for Afghan Interpreters.
