On the same flight from Amman another Syrian refugee young man also sponsored by BCMA arrived Vancouver to join his four more Syrian friends at Whistler.

Mohammad Aljamous is one of four young men arrived through BCMA sponsorship with an agreement with the Fairmount Hotel in Whistler to accommodate and employ them there. Aljamous was received by his colleagues Fahimi, Ghaibour and Ousi as shown in the photo.
