I'm a refugee and I came to Canada in 1995 from the former Yugoslavia. I know what it feels like to not be wanted in your own country. I saw that picture and I cried. Yes, they could have stayed in Greece but its not that simple. I'm so grateful that my mom brought us all here and I would do anything for my child too. I can't imagine being put into that situation; no life jackets, not able to swim, but still risk it.
