Recognizing Shamim Ahmadi

Описание: Recognizing Shamim Ahmadi’s perseverance, hard work, and incredible journey in the House of Commons.

Shamim grew up in a Taliban occupied city in Afghanistan where girls who tried to go to school faced threats and danger.

She came to Canada 5 years ago at the age of 21. Now she is a permanent resident, and following her dream of becoming a doctor.

“I have my status, I have my life in Canada, and now I’m going for my higher education and there is nothing to stop me.”

We were lucky to have Shamim volunteer in our constituency office. It is stories like hers that help to make our country what it is.
