I am beyond grateful to be given the opportunity to be pardoned. It has been over 10 years and I have used this time to reflect back and think of ways to constantly better myself as a human being. To have my record suspended makes me feel like I have a fresh start, a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I finally have a clean slate. I want to leave my past in the past and work on a brighter future.
I am looking forward to finally becoming a Canadian citizen after living in this beautiful country for 20 years now. I want to contribute to society, be able to help and do my part.
Am I able to apply for citizenship directly now that my pardon has been granted? The thought of being a citizen of Canada makes me feel excited and warm inside. This country has been my home for half of my life. I am very thankful to it.
I would like to thank the government of Canada and Pardons Canada. Thank you for giving me a new start. I will promise to be the best version of myself.
Sincerely,
Azeem
