About

HAPY Publications Inc. creates practical books and learning resources for newcomers and immigrants in Canada, as well as the educators and organizations that support them.

Our aim is to make information easier to understand and help people reflect on their experiences, communicate more clearly, and make informed decisions.

The story behind the name

HAPY Publications is more than a name. It reflects the immigrant journey.

Iwona Buziak-Mohamed created the HAPY logo using red letters for H, A, and P, with the Y in white on a red square. The distinctive spelling reflects an idea from her own journey: not everything feels complete at the beginning, and that is okay.

When Iwona designed the logo, one step of her own journey was still missing. That moment became part of the story behind HAPY.

Our resources

HAPY Publications offers books and learning materials, including Making Canada Home: The HAPPY Method Guide for Immigrants, its companion workbook, ESL materials for seniors, and Daily Dozen — Visual Exercise Guide for Seniors 65+.

The resources are designed to support learning, communication, and everyday life in Canada.
