S4 E2 SJT Immigration Project: Croatia & Philippines
Today's episode has an interview with an immigrant from Croatia who came to Canada in part to escape Communism. Also, we have a student interviewing another student about his immigration from the Philippines.  NOTE: I, Mr. Luukkonen, made a mistake in the copy for the hosts and incorrectly wrote Yugoslavia instead of Croatia. My apologies to Maja's family for this! By the time it was noticed, it was too late to re-record the hosts audio, so I inserted a small bit at the beginning of the episode about this error. My sincere apologies.  Please share this with a friend, or someone you know who might be interested! Find us on Anchor.fm/sjt and/or on your favourite podcast players.  See you next week! The SJT Immigration Project is a production of the SJT's Enhanced Academic Program and the Social Department.
