This website talks about the adjustment in Canada. It explains the challenges and obstacles you have to overcome and will soon enough face in your life. The more research you do about Canada, even before immigrating, it is helpful to help prepare yourself and helps you adapt, most importantly mentally, to the lifestyle in Canada. As a newcomer, if you feel depressed, stressed out, and find yourself wondering everyday about what your family back home is doing and how they are, or are having doubts whether or not you have made the right decision by immigrating to another country for a better future, this website helps you and explains to you that what you are thinking and/or feeling is normal and expected. This site will further explain to you that feelings of stress are common especially that you have to learn English, and as a child, besides English you also have to learn French. So struggling with learning two new languages and getting frustrated is very normal.
I find this website helpful because if any newcomer were to come to Canada and felt so lost within themselves and frustrated and wanted to check if these "symptoms" were normal, this website would provide them with the right information and the right explanations. This is a great website to explore because it gives you information about coming to Canada, after immigrating to Canada, partnering with program providing services for those that are new in Canada, etc. All there is to know is just one click away.
