Refugee Support
Details
We are honoured to welcome Eusebio Garcia, the refugee settlement worker for the Toronto Quaker Meeting to speak with us this week.
Eusebio works on the front lines, assisting refugees in many stages of the process of settling in Canada. He will speak to Oasis about the nature of this process, and some of the problems refugees face in Canada, sharing a first-hand perspective and personal experiences.
And on the Oasis Stage!

Lady Son (aka Yeti Ajasin) has been described as one of the most arresting voices on the Canadian music scene, often drawing comparisons to music legend Celia Cruz. Lady Son redefines Afro-Latin grooves for the 21st century. Though Canadian-born of Italian-Nigerian-Jewish heritage, Lady Son’s deep love and appreciation for Latin rhythms has its roots in Cuba. Her debut CD, Semillas, explored her dual passion for Nuyorican-style salsa and Guajiro culture and earned her a New Music Award for Best World Album.
