Radio-Canada – « Quitter la Silicon Valley pour le rêve canadien »

CBC News – ‘Indigenizing Settlement’: Building Bridges Between Newcomers and Indigenous People in Sask.
Settlement organizations, the entry point for many immigrants in Saskatchewan, say they are working to foster relationships between Indigenous people and newcomers. “For so long, we’ve recognized that when newcomers come here, we want them to get certain education, to get to certain language level, have a certain understanding of Canadian culture, but one of the things we’ve missed is educating them on Indigenous culture,” said Jess Hamm, executive director of Saskatchewan Intercultural Association.

Many of the students in the English language learner program at Peterborough’s Thomas A. Stewart Secondary School are refugees from Syria, and they were devastated by the deaths of seven children from the Barho family, also Syrian refugees, in a house fire Feb. 15 in Halifax.

One of the students learned to bake in a Turkish refugee camp and suggested making traditional Turkish bread as a fundraiser for the family.
National Post – Somali Man Who Illegally Entered Canada to Flee Trump Immigrant Crackdown Has Refugee Claim Rejected
Abdirizak Abdullahi Mohamed was among the hundreds of migrants who illegally entered Canada in 2017 by walking across the largely uncontrolled border into Canada near Emerson, Man. “This case is a testament that the system works — if there are people coming to Canada because they have in their mind a refugee fear, but they got a bit of a history on not following the law that makes you stand out, then you won’t be given access to the refugee protection system in Canada,” said Mohamed’s lawyer, Winnipeg-based Bashir Khan.
CBC News – ‘Not Canadian Enough:’ Edmonton Woman’s Girls Denied Citizenship Under 2009 Law
Victoria Maruyama was born in Hong Kong and, because her father was Canadian, has been a Canadian citizen since she was a baby. When she was a year old, the family moved to Edmonton where she grew up. At the age of 22, she went to Japan to teach English. She was seven months pregnant with their first daughter, Akari, in 2009 when Conservative government amendments to the citizenship laws took away her right to pass on citizenship to her children unless they were born in Canada.
Aspiring immigrants to Quebec are expressing both optimism and resignation at a court order that forces the provincial government to continue processing their applications for a Quebec selection certificate. Immigration Minister Simon Jolin-Barrette tabled legislation earlier this month that will scrap more than 18,000 outstanding applications to settle in Quebec as skilled workers. Jolin-Barrette ordered his ministry to immediately stop processing the applications that had already been filed. A Superior Court judge issued a 10-day injunction Monday ordering the Ministry of Immigration to continue treating those applications.
