Soad Ali: Ali and Refugee Claims

soad ali: It's so nice, they are all so kind to us, said Ali, according to CTV. She is from Cairo, and has been living at Le Pont for the past month with her two young daughters, as have several other families. The church on Lacordaire St. in the east end has been housing asylum seekers such as Soad Ali and her family for several weeks. They are waiting for refugee claims to be processed, and as they wait the church's staff, volunteers, and the claimants mingle. We are all together, eat together, said Ali. We cook to each other, no one alone. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
