The Claim

Emerging story

A photo is doing rounds on various social media accounts alongside a claim that it shows elderly people carrying children after merging a nursing home with an orphanage in Canada.

The photo and the claim were posted and shared hundreds of times in multiple languages over social media networks.

Misbar’s Analysis

Misbar's investigation concluded that there's no evidence that a nursing home was merged with an orphanage in Canada. The circulated photo was actually orginally published in 2013 and belongs to a weekly voluntarily activity called "Alt & Jung/ Old & Young" in the city of Karlsruhe, Germany.
