Annette Wilde and Pearson International Airport

Canada: It the fourth such plane to touch down in Canada, the third in Toronto. "It sad they're coming in the middle of winter, it sort of a shock," said Annette Wilde, a volunteer with Save a Family From Syria, according to Hamilton Spectator. The organization has helped privately sponsor five families to Canada — the first of which is set to arrive within the next few days, she said. On Friday, a plane carrying about 214 refugees landed at Pearson International Airport around 5 p.m. She and other volunteers have been busy preparing for their arrival, scouting an apartment in Scarborough, buying furniture and finding ESL classes. The majority of those arriving Friday, 138, are classified as "blended visa office-referred" refugees, meaning they have been matched with private sponsors in Canada, with help from the United Nations Refugee Agency. The family of two parents and two children — a 3-year-old and a 1-year-old — will need help with everything from learning how to navigate the TTC to learning how to shop in a Canadian grocery store.
