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. Genre:  Memoirs.
