Born in Aegian Macedonia, ocupied by the Greek Fashist System.I, my Parents and the entire town spoke only macedonian. When I attempted grade 1, 2, 3 and 4, I was beaten, tortured because i did not speak properly Greek.
In spring of 1945, nearly the entire population of my town forsfully had to leave my birth place. Thanks to the Macedonian government and the people of Macedonia for opening the doors for us. I continued my education in Macedonia, up to two years university, then imigrated to Canada. In Canada I ontinued my education and became professional "Civil engineer". This will never, never hapened in fashist Greek system.
I love Canada. Canada gave me all the oportunities I wanted. Canada recognises my background as Macedonian. Wherever I go on vacation, arround the world, "I AM ALWAYS CANADIAN".
