The experience of youths in moving to Canada

This perspective of youth moving to Canada and their experience in the school systems is a must to watch.  What struck me most was the fact that some youth came without their parents.  They had to adapt and settle without parental support.  This fact alone is astonishing and it really puts light on our job as educators for ELLs.  It isn't always the academice side that we must focus on with youth; there are sometimes more basic concerns like whether or not a child has enough food to eat.  This is why I felt it was important to include this video clip in my artifacts.
