While in Alberta, Central Nova MP and Immigration minister Sean Fraser helped welcome
some of the country’s newest citizens.
Fraser said the government recently held a citizenship ceremony partnership with the Calgary Flames, noting the NHL team pulled out all the stops.
Fraser called it an incredible experience joining the new Canadians on the ice for the anthem, adding it is something he will never forget. Organizations like the Flames being so supportive of newcomers speaks volumes about the value of supporting immigration in Canada, said Fraser.
