Becoming Labrador tells the stories of three families and their experiences in immigrating to Newfoundland. The film gives opportunities to discuss and understand the experience of immigration in Canada. What is the process of immigration for those coming from the Philippines? Why is it that families are often separated and cannot come to Canada at the same time? What are some of the biggest challenges for people who immigrate to Canada?
