when did you move to Canada and from where

1993 - 19 years old from India

Do you miss or feel a connection to your "Old Country"

Not really. I miss the food sometimes, especially the street food. Indian restaurants here over the years have become good, so that's filled a void. I moved to Edmonton with my mother and brother after my parents separated, went to university there and worked there for many years, and started getting into hockey. That's where my Oilers connection comes from . Moved to Calgary 4 years ago, really enjoy the city, can't give up my loyalty to the home team though.

Do you feel Canadian

Without question. I had tears in my eyes at the citizenship ceremony. Canada has provided me, and my family, opportunities we could not have dreamed of back home. I have worked hard to get where I am professionally and personally, but this country has been good to me!
