I Share: Ottawa and Daniel Alfredsson

i share: Thousands attended the ceremony, and thousands cheered loudly, according to Huffington Post Canada. It was an emotional moment for the Alfredsson family and for the people of Ottawa, who have adopted 'Alfie' as one of their own. What ovation, you ask I'm referring to the one given just over a month ago in Ottawa, Canada to Sweden native and former Ottawa Senators captain Daniel Alfredsson, whose No. 11 jersey was recently retired by the team. Both on and off the ice he has given so much to the community and to Canada, and we were very proud to welcome him as a Canadian citizen last year. One, because Daniel Alfredsson is back in Sweden this week as a delegate on our Canadian State visit. Why do I share this story For several reasons. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
