The City Addresses Immigration in Calgary

April 7, 2010 - The City of Calgary is moving forward in developing a Municipal Immigration Policy. ISCC congratulates The City for its leadership and vision of a diverse and well integrated city where newcomers can fully participate.  ISCC will continue with its efforts to ensure this initiative is community driven.

Welcome
