Throwing A Party Dept: Mamadou Tounkara welcomed his wife and three children to Canada from Guinea, West Africa, on Thursday at Vancouver International Airport, seeing them for the first time since he fled his homeland. In Guinea, one of African's poorest and most troubled countries, Tounkara ran a children's clothing store. But after he was imprisoned and tortured, he fled the country in 1998. A Prince George, B.C., restaurant owner has been reunited with his family after nearly 12 years, so he's throwing a party Friday night for his adopted city to show his gratitude. It almost didn't happen, but the people of Prince George raised $12,000 to help make sure it did. As
