A bus filled with 44 newly-arrived Ukrainians, including 4 children, pulled in at the Ukrainian Heritage Museum in Canora on Oct. 30. Canora-Pelly MLA Terry Dennis, the Saskatchewan Secretary for Ukrainian relations, has been deeply involved in bringing Ukrainian refugees to Saskatchewan. He said he was informed that they are getting close to capacity limits in Saskatoon and Regina, so the newcomers were visiting a number of smaller communities, including Canora, to see where they would like to settle. Dennis hosted the group for a Canora tour. He said there is accommodation available in Canora through Saskatchewan Housing, 鈥渏ust so we can make sure they are well looked after and get good housing.鈥� Anyone looking for more information on the new arrivals is encouraged to phone the Canora-Pelly constituency office at 306-563-1363.Rocky Neufeld / Canora Courier
