Hanging over his head was the biggest question of all – the people. After a lengthy period of time living in Jordan as a refugee, the Syrian man arrived in Canada on Sept. 20, 2015. He didn't know what his new neighbours would think of somebody from halfway around the world, with different customs and little understanding of the Canadian way of life. But it didn't take long for him to realize that things would be different in Canada. The transition hadn't been very smooth in Jordan, even though that country shares a border with Syria.
