65 Room for All of Us

Former Governor General Adrienne Clarkson has written a collection of personal profiles, Room for All of Usl, which explores the immigrant experience in Canada. Like her, many of the people she features did not have a real choice about whether to leave their homeland. They often arrived friendless and with a sense of loss. Yet their struggles and successes have enriched Canada as much as Canada has helped them. They have gone on to become a mayor of a large Canadian city, a former ambassador to China, a cbc Radio host and provincial and federal politicians. In this interview, Adrienne will talk about her own refugee experience and what she discovered about Canada through these stories.
