I just want to mention that today is Canada Day. That means alot to us. I was born and raised in Canada and I am proud of it. Daniel is a refrugee and Canada became his new country of great opportunities. Canada is an amazingly vast country that can celebrate peace, multiculturism, opportunity, diversity, four seasons, mountains, lakes, rivers not to mention the Atlantic, Pacific and Artic Oceans. Wow, yes we are that big. Daniel and I are very fortunate to live in Canada’s capital Ottawa. It is such a beautiful city. The great Ottawa River, The Rideau River and the ever Historical Rideau Canal. We were invited guests a couple of weeks ago to the World Refrugee Week at the West Block of Parliament Hill. That was very exilerating. We can go on and on about our city of parks and gardens, farms and markets, but we leave you with the desire to come and visit us and find out for yourself what a beautiful country Canada really is. Happy Canada Day!!!!!!!!!!!
The Honourable Jason Kenney, Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism and Mr. Abraham Abraham, Representative in Canada of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees held a reception “Voices of Refugees” at the West Block on Parliament Hill. Victor and I were invited along with an elite group of guests on Tuesday, June 16th. This was the “premiere” of Graham Richardson’s documentary on 6 Refugees who now live in Canada, portraying their stories of hardships and torture. Victor was part of this documentary and we will upload Victor’s story when we receive a copy.
