Totally blew up today Today was my Canadian citizenship oath ceremony.It was a virtual call on zoom.During oath I was not able to not even utter a single word.After few minutes officials muted my speaker.There were like 60 people on zoom call.I felt so humiliated.The feeling of not knowing what will happen and who to contact .
