LINC (Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada): Classes delivered 5 days a week by Thunder Bay Multicultural Association (TBMCA) provide social and day to day language training to Newcomers. They share their experiences, hopes and frustrations as newcomers. Language training at LINC helps them not only to improve English skills in all areas (listening and speaking, reading and writing), but also develop friendships and connections and ultimately assists participants on their way to integrating into the Canadian society.
