Synopsis

Would you like to look at Alberta through the eyes of someone seeing it for the first time? In My ‘Berta Beginning, immigrants from around the world share the story of their journey to Alberta and their first days in Wild Rose Country. Each episode is dedicated to one person. We dive into their life to get a sense of who they are, where they are coming from. We ask why Alberta? And make connections between individual stories and phenomena like migration trends and government policy.
