In her documentary My Dad Ward, freelance journalist Jazzmin Jiwa brings us the story of a Ugandan mother tricked into moving to Iraq and what Vancouver activist Ward Reddick did to help her get home again. Correction: In this episode, we reported that Mary couldn't afford the bus fare to bring her daughter home, implying that they were living apart. In fact, after completing her reporting, journalist Jazzmin Jiwa drove Mary to meet with Ahdia and bring her home.
