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.
