Resources to navigate life and work as an immigrant
Hey there!
In Canada, October begins on the heels of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation — a time to reflect, honour Indigenous peoples, and renew our commitment to learning and healing. As the season of gratitude follows, we’re thankful for long-time residents and newcomers alike, who together make Canada the diverse and welcoming country it is. Most of all, we’re grateful for you, our readers and viewers, whom we’re dedicated to supporting every step of the way. Since October is also Small Business Month, we’re starting this newsletter with practical digital strategies for newcomer entrepreneurs. Read on for details and more stories. As always, we’d love to hear what resonates with you at [email protected]
