The immigrant journey amid the new normal

Jun 24, 2020 | New Canadian

On the historic day that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced border closure with the United States, Farhan and I reached Canada after a 2,250 km drive from Texas. Driving two-straight days, we made it to our new home at the onset of the COVID19 lockdown2020 .

The last few months have been a roller-coaster ride as we adjust to a new city, a new country and a new continent. We spoke with Gertrude Tumusime from New Canadians about our experiences of moving to Canada in unprecedented health and economic climate. We shared our struggles and silver linings along with George Oneissy and Sherdil Khan.

I hope you enjoy watching this coffee chat with New Canadians TV as much as we enjoyed doing it. We also had the honour of being the first couple on the show 🙂
