Our Greener Pastures

In this moving episode of Our Greener Pastures, we sit down with David, who shares his journey of resilience and self-improvement. After leaving for Canada, David faced numerous challenges, including juggling hard labour jobs and pursuing an education. Yet, his determination to create a better life never wavered.
