System Flaws and Their Impacts to Families

All That Jas Podcast with Calgary member of Parliament Jasraj Singh Hallan

When Napoléon met his Waterloo, it was his life’s defeat – when Gideon Christian met his Waterloo, he found his life’s destiny.

Canada was only supposed to be a pit stop on his journey to the United States from his country of birth in Nigeria.
