Reuters Canada – German Minister Warns Countries not to Push Refugee Burden onto Germany
Germany’s interior minister warned fellow European Union states on Friday not to take national measures against a migrant influx that would burden Germany and threatened action if they did.

CBC – Syrian Refugees get Access to Special Medical Clinic
There’s a new effort on P.E.I. to make sure the Syrian refugees who have arrived are getting the medical help they need, at a special clinic.

But after their initial needs were taken care of, officials realized many had health issues that needed to be addressed. “You can imagine if someone has been without care for three or four years, and they’ve gone through the turmoil they’ve gone through,” said Lisa Shaffer, Health PEI’s Primary Care Network Manager for Queens West.

Cleveland and her colleagues worry this week’s announcement that the federal government’s restoring refugee health care April 1, greeted with jubilation by clinicians who’ve been contriving laborious workarounds to get their patients treatment, won’t be enough.
CTV News – Syrian Refugees Learn French Before Going to School
Elementary school teacher Evelyn Bissonnette asks her 14 young students to stand up, one by one, and introduce themselves. “Hello,” a confident young boy says in French. “My name is George and I am seven years old and I speak French, Arabic and English.

CBC – Syrian Refugees say they Feel Trapped without Adequate Help
