B.C. prepares for Syrian refugee influx

As British Columbia braces for an influx of Syrian refugees, the province's main immigration settlement service has called an emergency meeting to plan for their arrival.

The session, scheduled for next Monday and organized by the Immigration Services Society of B.C., is aimed at bringing together key officials from housing and health and government sectors who will be involved in the initial phase of the refugees' arrival.

Most Syrian refugees headed for B.C. expected to land in Surrey

The Immigration Services Society says the response from people wanting to help has been tremendous.

So far, there have been 281 offers of housing, 650 people who want to volunteer their time and 20 job leads.

It's estimated that 2,700 Syrian refugees are expected to arrive in B.C. by the end of the year. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/refugee-syria-burnab...
