From Asylum-Refugee to Tuition-Free! - bjcheung77 - 06-15-2022

Apparently this student fled Iraq and came here to the US but because of Trump, deflected to Canada instead.   I wonder what would really have happened if the family decided to stay in the US vs going to Canada.  I remember a few months ago reading about a family from India freezing to death trying to come into the US from Canada... Props to her and the family, I cried reading the story of how hard she tried at succeeding...
