Rebel Attacks: Democratic Republic of Congo

Democratic Republic of Congo: Its a grim scenario, but its one thats playing out for hundreds of thousands of people every day in the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country torn apart by more than two decades of war with neighbouring countries and brutal rebel attacks, according to CTV. The picture is sobering, and heartbreaking. Living in Canada its hard to imagine that people dont have access to medical care, education and clean water but this is daily life in the poverty-ravaged African nation, where most people live on less than a dollar a day and Imagine all that stood between you and an education was $1 a month and you couldnt afford to pay it. And your sole possession was the outfit you re wearing right now. Earlier this month I was invited by World Vision to tour its development projects in the DRC -- all made possible by money from donors in North America. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
