Episode 39: Canada, I do . . . I mean, I don’t?
Happy Canadian Citizenship Week! While we're not exactly sure what that means, we will deep dive into the complicated, messy and even joyous relationship immigrants consider when saying 'I do' to citizenship in Canada. What are the reasons people decide to become citizens? What are the reasons people don't? What is it about Canada that makes someone say 'Yes to the Maple Dress'? Okay, we're getting off topic. But, no really . . . why?
It's complicated and messy and down right more than just a piece of paper.
