Hamilton Centre: Hamilton and Immigration

hamilton centre: The Hamilton Centre for Civic Inclusion HCCI and the Hamilton Immigration Partnership Council launched Hamilton ForAll today, according to CBC. The campaign involves handing out posters showing commonalities between longtime residents and new arrivals. Now they've launched a campaign aimed at making Hamilton more welcoming to newcomers. The goal is to make people realize we're all Hamiltonians, said Yohana Otite, HCCI program manager. In particular, Trump said he would ban immigration from some Muslim majority countries, and build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico. The message is 'You don't just belong in Hamilton, you are Hamiltonian.' The idea came after the U.S. presidential election, when now-president Donald Trump focused on immigration in his campaign.
