Our New Canadian Citizens
After fleeing from Sierra Leone, via a refugee camp in the Gambia as refugees and arriving in Nova Scotia on October 2nd, 2006, Donald, Christiana Kalley and their son Israel have been sworn in at Citizenship Court as Canadians on Friday, November 19th, 2010. They have two children: Donalda and Hudson who were born in Canada and therefore are already Canadians. The Inverness County Welcomes Refugee Resettlement Committee is very proud of our new Canadians. Thanks to all the churches for their assistance in this successful outcome.
Alexander Chapman and his children: Hayleigh, Keegan and Cassandra took care of Donalda and Hudson during the ceremony.
