I am Canadian

Blog Posted by Arthur Vaso: 4/13/2017 9:48:00 PM

Malala was made an honorary citizen of Canada April 12, 2017, thus the title, I am Canadian! I have first written of her in 2013, she is truly a woman effecting change around the world.

Forgot to say: Malala is the voice for those of us without a voice, oppressed and abused women, children, for everyone who needs support.
