Community-Based Services

: I had worked for over 20 years providing community-based services for war-affected people in my country, according to Rabble. I was also actively involved in human rights advocacy on issues affecting women and children there. I came to Canada for shelter from a long civil war, a war with which I grew up. When I came to Canada, I found that my work was not recognized or valued. It was only the Canadian experience that would matter, they told me. When I went for help to employment services, I was advised to remove these work experiences from my resume. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
