My Home and Native Land: Dr. Joana Goncalves

NARRATOR: My home and native land: Personal stories of coming to Canada. DR. JOANA GONCALVES: When I came to Canada, I wanted to continue to be a doctor. And I would do anything to pursue that dream. NARRATOR: Dr. Joana Goncalves emigrated from Portugal in 1974. DR. JOANA GONCALVES: I was born in Madeira Island, Portugal. I lived in Madeira Island with my mother and my brothers and sisters. NARRATOR: Portugal was ruled by a dictatorship for most of the 20th century. During that time, thousands of people left Portugal to seek better economic and political conditions in other countries. DR. JOANA GONCALVES: When I came to Canada, I have two young children and I decided to stay home for them to grow until they would go to kindergarten and then pursue my career. NARRATOR: Dr. Goncalves later took the exams required to practise medicine in Ontario. She failed at her first two attempts. DR. JOANA GONCALVES: I thought to myself at that time was this is not going to be Canada that is going to tell me you are not going to be a doctor. And that gives me courage to pursue. I had one doctor telling me, oh, you will never get it. I start crying. And another doctor was in there. She’s Korean. And then she comes to me and says look it, no one has the right to tell you if you are able or not. Only yourself. And that I heard that, for me it was really a great enthusiasm. When I got my licence, of course the first person that I called was her. I went to her and I said, I got it. This is my

My Home and Native Land: Jacey Chae

NARRATOR: My home and native land, personal stories of coming to Canada. JACEY CHAE: If I had an opinion at a dinner or something, you know, I would be thrown a comment like, well, what do you know? You’re a woman. NARRATOR: Jacey Chae, Guest Services Manager, Toronto Blue Jays, emigrated from Korea in 1974. JACEY CHAE: If you’d like to stand here, when the players are done with batting practice, we’ll try to get some autographs. Our father was very well educated and he put himself through school. Upon graduating from university, he couldn’t really find a job. Korea was in post-war situation. NARRATOR: After fleeing to Canada, Jacey’s father was able to sponsor his family. In 1988, Jacey returned to Korea and married. In 1991, she left her marriage and returned to Canada. JACEY CHAE: I realized then that I am no longer Korean, Korean, and I think that’s when I truly made the commitment. I would only now visit Korea as the land that I was born in. This is my home and now, once I have taken that journey and came back in 1991 is when I became a true Canadian. I can actually say our mom would be proud. She said she wanted to raise two girls who can survive on top of a mountain with no food. Well, they certainly, you know, achieved that. Just by bringing us to Canada. To be Canadian is to have freedom to do whatever you want and whenever you want. Okay, this is the Jays’ dugout. Freedom for me to speak whenever I want without being shut down to say what do you know? You’re a

NARRATOR: My home and native land: Personal stories of coming to Canada. HUY LAM: If things go bad in Canada and you’ve got to run out of Canada, there’s nowhere else you can go because this is the end of the line. NARRATOR: Huy Lam, photographer, emigrated from Vietnam in 1979 at age 9. HUY LAM: Do you mind if I photograph you? NARRATOR: In April 1975, the war in Vietnam came to an end. More than one million people left Indochina. Half of these refugees were Vietnamese. HUY LAM: Anybody that wanted to get out tried to get out and the most common way was through boats as refugees. We got on the boat and we left. And as we left, there was a government boat chasing us. And it was pretty rough waters because, you know, you’re on the run and stuff like that and everybody got seasick. And then by early morning, they had stopped chasing us and we were basically out in the open waters. NARRATOR: After several days at sea, they arrived on a refugee island off the coast of Malaysia. HUY LAM: There were a lot of people that got robbed from pirates and drownings and … you name it, it happened. NARRATOR: The Lams were fortunate to be sponsored by a Canadian family. They arrived in Canada in November 1979 where they were greeted by their sponsors. HUY LAM: After they picked us up from Hamilton, they drove us to St. Catharines where they had a house basically prepared for us. And it was a little townhouse and it was furnished and, you know, it was all prepared for us and there was

NARRATOR: My home and native land: Personal stories of coming to Canada. NAEEM “NICK” NOORANI: The government book said if you need a credit card, go to your nearest bank and get a credit card. That just so does not happen to an immigrant. NARRATOR: Naeem Nick Noorani, publisher, Canadian Immigrant Magazine, born in India, emigrated to Canada in 1998. NAEEM “NICK” NOORANI: Hi. I’m Nick Noorani. I publish a magazine for immigrants. I love the country. I love the people. I love the fact that I can be Canadian and I can preserve my Indian-ness. Thank you. I migrated to Canada in 1998. I was born in Bombai, India, which is now called Mumbai. I lived in two other countries before I came to Canada. So I guess you could call me a serial immigrant. I wanted to move my kids into the West. I wanted to give them an opportunity to live in a country like Canada which is devoid of any kind of racial undertones. I came to Vancouver, fell in love with the people, fell in love with the city and I guess it was a natural seduction, if you may. It’s always fascinated me. What is that one thing that makes one immigrant so successful? What is it that makes another immigrant throw in the towel and go back after a year? I think a lot of immigrants make a mistake when they come to this country by living in small silos. They stay within their own community, they don’t go out. If you would ask me the one thing that makes every single immigrant whom I have met and interviewed who have been on the

Did you know that Native Americans (Aboriginal Americans) can travel freely between Mexico, Canada and the USA?

Posted August 24th, 2010 by immigratecanada and filed in Uncategorized

They are called First Nations in Canada; they do not need a passport or a Visa to travel throughout North America; therefore many of the people that you assume are illegal are not illegal at all. What do you think of that?
