April 4 is a day to celebrate the historical wins for refugee rights in Canada, but also an opportunity to reflect on the issues existing in the refugee system. We are not a 'country of refuge' until we reexamine how we choose who to welcome & how they are inequitably processed.

This week is all about #interpreting for me - three face to face assignments. One client asked how I remember so many words at once - I told him I memorise the meaning, not the words, interpreting is about accurately conveying the message. #1nt

This is unacceptable - especially at a time when #interpreters are facing an increased risk of injury due to the sound quality of platforms used for virtual meetings. Interpreters deserve better. #1nt #RSI @AnitaOakville nationalpost.com/news/people…
