From Refugee to Cabinet Member
Meet the Honourable Ahmed Hussen. He is a graduate of the University of Ottawa, Faculty of Law, co-founded Regent Park Community Council, was national president of the Canadian Somali Congress, and practised criminal, immigration and human rights law. Elected in 2015, Minister Hussen served as Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship and now is Minister of Families, Children and Social Development. This is a pre-recorded event hosted by the University of Ottawa Public Law Centre. Professor Vanessa MacDonnell and I trace his remarkable journey from refugee to law school, to the Federal Cabinet.
