Canada criticized for not helping Afghans who helped their military

Now, Canada lacks the personnel in Afghanistan to help these former employees leave. Emma Jacobs reports from Montreal that many Canadians are calling on their government to do more to help these people, and other refugees fleeing the Taliban.
