The group is called "Gala Canada". It is a group that mainly consists of hundreds of Somalis who were failed asylum seekers that tried to stay in Europe (recent tahriibs). They have their own website: www.galacanada.org.
I understand there are also smaller Gala chapters in Minnesota and Ohio as well that just started. But the main group is Gala Canada.
The group was created by a Somali guy who had his asylum case thrown out in Italy and the Netherlands. His name is Abdifatah Mire and here is his Facebook: https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100004386393171&tsid=0.2694056714305997&source=typeahead
Gala Canada members (who have entered Canada on tourist visas) are largely living in Toronto now and they are lobbying the Canadian government in letting them stay. They have not yet lobbied U.S. officials but that is their plan.
Here are videos of their xaflad:
The link below is of a meeting Gala Canada had with the Somalia ambassador to U.S/North America discussing the idea of the stoppage of the deportations of tahriibs. They have lobbied him to make it Somalia govt policy to not accept any Somali being deported from Canada, the U.S. and Europe.

One notable and unusual recruit of Gala Canada is singer Awaale who had his own asylum application denied years ago by the then Conservative government. However I am hearing that reportedly he is having his case reopened and that he will not be deported until another final decision is made.
So far, Gala Canada has been reportedly lobbying very high officials from the Trudeau Liberals, such as members of his cabinet like the office of Immigration Minister John McCallum. He agreed to help them.
What's worse is that Gala Canada have introduced Khat to the younger generation and khat usage is closely increasing. They also don't work and those that do work do cash jobs and get welfare as well.
