Tanya we are one of the families who have helped the Perliks settle into their new lives in St. Albert. Literally it was love at first site. We felt an instant connection and that has grown into a family-like relationship over the past 9 months. Alberta is home to almost 10% of Ukrainian Canadians so many of us Albertans have Ukrainian roots. We have been sharing in many of the Perliks' challenges as they navigate through all of our somewhat complicated and confusing systems (mostly our government bureaucracy). We are learning so much about ourselves, our non-questioning and very accepting nature which is foreign to our Ukrainian friends. We have had many intense discussions about why we are the way we are and are left with more questions than answers. We feel blessed that your original article has brought Nadiia, Sasha, Vlad and Dyma to our community and I want to thank you for that. We are hoping that the next months and years will be kind to them as they so deserve it.
Really happy to hear that you made your way and can finally begin to settle in 🇨🇦
Sorry to hear though that they don't accept your diploma, that must feel so unfair :(
But nonetheless I'm so, so happy you found a place and got the help you needed with furniture and everything, I'm sure you all will continue your journey in a good way there!
And if you ever come back to Vienna, let me know ✌🏻

Thanks Tanja-- This story would resonate with many of the listeners on @MriyaReport, as they are Canadian or have Canadian ties.
