Summary:
"
Missing
the
Cues
,
Tales
of a
Newcomer
's
Life
in
Canada
explores the often unspoken and unwritten codes that newcomers encounter in
Canada
, from the perspective of a woman of colour with Caribbean roots. Whether they have come out of choice or necessity, newcomers gradually expect to fully enjoy the social, political, and economic good times in
Canada
. And yet, tips about unlocking the doors to the full potential of the good times can elude many new immigrants. This book is ... about the subtle
cues
, gestures and unwritten traditions that can both enhance and frustrate the immigrant dream."--Back cover.
