Toronto Pearson Airport and Syrian Refugee Families

: Members of groups who are sponsoring two Syrian refugee families hold up signs welcoming their charges as they wait for the families to arrive at Toronto Pearson Airport, on Wednesday, Dec. 9, 2015, according to Huffington Post Canada. Here a look at five challenges the newcomers will face: 1) Getting to know Canada. They are the vanguard of 25,000 expected by the end of February. Normally, refugees are given detailed orientation sessions abroad before they board flights to Canada. But the nature of this programs means very little of that is happening before the refugees arrive in Canada and they'll have to learn as they go. The programs are run by the International Organization for Migration and cover everything from how to dress for winter to making a household budget. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
