Monica and her daughters, Monica y sus hijass

I am Mónica, a single Mexican mother, of 2 girls ages 11 and 15, I am in Canada, as a refugee for almost 4 years now, we arrived in Canada, (in a beautiful and quiet city, as the beautiful cities of Mexico once were), Fleeing from the Cartel in Mexico, due to direct death threats, we cannot return to Mexico, for fear that they will find us at any moment and we already know the end. In Canada my daughters have learned to live without fear, they live free and are afraid to return to Mexico. I have thought about abandoning my daughters to their fate in Canada, but I am afraid that the Canadian government will deport them without stopping to think that their lives are in danger in Mexico. unfortunately there are times when the family is involved with drugs and the consequences come to us, who have nothing to owe, however, we have no option to return, since the government cannot protect us from violence that "does not exist in Mexico" As Latinos and especially as Mexicans, we know that the government cannot protect us and those of us who have been hit by organized mafias are even victims of the police themselves, I currently found a lawyer who can help me stop my forced departure from the country, but as a single mother it is impossible for me to afford the high costs of services.  That is why I ask for help, I am trying to sell my car that I bought with effort, but it is still insufficient and I work hard every day but it is insufficient for the lawyer's expenses.

I am very grateful for your help and understanding.
