I have a question that I'd like some immigrants to weigh in on:

This summer I went to a wedding in Smithers BC and while I was there we went out to a restaurant and our server was this Nigerian man.

He immigrated from Nigeria directly to Smithers. Now Smithers is in the middle of nowhere and, quite frankly, is pretty tough to get to and there isnt a whole lot there. Why did he choose there? And he was far from the only immigrant in that area.

I just found it odd that people would immigrate directly to some small rural town in northern BC.

Is there something in the process that places them?
