The Game was supposed to embark on a 14-date Canadian tour starting this weekend.
But that's not going to happen after Game's Temporary Resident Permit was rejected by the Canadian government.
The Game's Canadian promotors jumped on Instagram to explain the situation and offer refunds.
Unfortunately The Canadian Government has rejected the TRP (Temporary Resident Permits) application to pre approve The Game to enter Canada.
This is very disappointing news for everyone involved, including The Game, his Management, The Agency, all the Buyers/Promoters, the venues and of course the Fans. We understand that many fans will be upset with this news, we ask that you please read the statement below released by the Agency explaining the details.
TICKETFLY.COM WILL BE EMAILING ALL TICKET PURCHASERS AND ISSUING A FULL REFUND.
Canada requires that artists with a past criminal history apply for temporary residency. Game's team say they spent hundreds of hours obtaining the proper paperwork, including testimony from fans and business leaders, character letters, and proof of Game's rehabilitation. However, the application was still rejected.
We wonder if Game's good friend (and Canadian hero) Drake put in a word.
