Canada's newly elected Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has decided to welcome 25,000 Syrian refugees within the next two months. That's a strong change of policy: Canada's former government had planned on letting in just 10,000 refugees over 3 years. While hundreds of families have already arrived, it appears the authorities are relying heavily on community organizations and public generosity to support the newcomers. Our reporters took a closer look at what the country is doing to welcome them.
