Two stories (private, of course)
China I have a partner who has been here in Canada and 10 years. In fact, is a Canadian citizen, he has to ask for a visa to go visit China. I work hard enough to understand spoken English. 10. Leave the data for reflection for those who like to talk about the concept of "perfecting the language."
We had very serious problems in the system and everyone was like crazy trying to find a solution. The case went all the action on it. There was a time when a high-level meeting with people from many departments, it was decided he was going to change a parameter in one component and that she should do the next day. The big boss (CIO called) said it was better that she did not single but was accompanied by someone from another department.
At the end of the session, and the day, the director of the department approached us privately and said, "I need not go it alone with the type of the other department. You understand the problem she has with her language and communication difficulties. She is clear about what it means, but it takes work. So please Let us support. "
The wife of a friend is a dentist. Sponsored arrived here, so virtually zero language. Everyone told him to forget his profession. She decided against it. He began to look for work and passed what normally happens when that decision is taken seriously: Found. And in your area. Moreover, he found one, but two jobs. It dental assistant and dental lab technician for the same company. Talking to your boss, an Arab, he said: "Here in Canada is much more important question of how that language. One understands that people do not speak it well. Of course, when people have no attitude, easy way to not give them the job is simply to say that no, they do not speak well enough. "
With the first story I want to show a bit about the attitude Canadians for immigrants who do not speak "perfect" language, which also happens to be almost everyone!
With the second, I want to show a case, particular insist, but it reflects what we should wield giving the fight: attitude.
