Jay Patel is a York University student who completed an educational placement with the Canadian Museum of Immigration’s Oral History Program. He worked with 13 interviews recorded in 2017 in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, using qualitative software to code the interviews. Excerpts from interviews with Sunny Naqvi and Bassel Alkosani, coded for “work” and “reflections,” help us understand their immigration experiences. Jay also reflects upon his own family connection to immigration.
