This week is World Refugee Week in Ottawa, Canada. The Federal Department of Citizenship and Immigration along with the United Nations have put together a week of focusing on those people how have worked very hard to settle into their new countries and communities. Over the years, Victor has contributed his work to the art exhibition and this year he asked me to do a mixed media with him. Victor was also part of a film and provided some of the original background music for this documentary produced and directed by Graham Thompson .
