The Hadhad family’s chocolate-making facilities in Syria were bombed, they lived as refugees in Lebanon for three years before moving to Antigonish, Nova Scotia, in 2016. Upon arriving in Canada, Essam’s son Tareq opened a new chocolate company in Antigonish.<\/p>\nWikipedia<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Wait….there’s a movie?<\/p>\n\n\n\n These idiots desecrated the Anti\/Counter Word Prefix Web site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To avoid confusion, we wish to point out the difference between counter (prefix<\/strong>) and counter (lunch<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The WLBOTT <\/strong>lunch counter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do we go to war over this invasive marketing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n No, we extend an olive branch.
