Somali-Canadian artist Oomaar Barbar has made an urgent plea for help from the Canadian government while in Norway. In July, Barbar posted a distressing video on TikTok, showing his damaged Canadian passport and appealing for immediate assistance.

This is the video he shared on TikTok, where he speaks in both Somali and English.

The incident has raised concerns about his well-being and mental health. Our attempts to reach Barbar for further comment have been unsuccessful.

This situation emphasizes the challenges faced by many Somali-Canadians travelling abroad. Many are not enrolled in the government’s Assistance Abroad program, which provides crucial support during emergencies. Travelers are encouraged to register for this program to ensure they can receive timely help when needed.
