Settlement

canada immigration form with pencil and maple leaf

I came to Canada with my wife and 3 kids in December, 2015, on the last day of the year. I came as a refugee. I felt so happy after starting a new life for our family. I felt safe. After some time, I met so many nice people. They were helpful to me. I started to learn English. My kids started school. We had a hard time but we found people that helped us. I want to be a Canadian citizen so I can help people who have problems. It is really hard to be a refugee and find a country that would welcome you in.
