Times have changed since 1961 when Steffie Steinke, along with her husband and little daughter immigrated to Canada, and now she questions the changes Canada has made to its immigration laws to favor immigrants to the point where she is afraid it has changed Canada's original culture and now burdens tax payers. Steffie also writes about the hurdles they had to overcome to make Canada their home. When they arrived, there was no help from the government but they also did not have expectations to receive any. They were thankful for the privilege to be allowed to set foot on Canadian grounds for a new start, and freedom and opportunities they didn't have in Germany, at the time they came. It was not an easy task, especially, not being able to speak English. The journey took years, a lot of struggles and difficulties but in the end what she got from it was a sense of pride and a feeling of accomplishment.
