Iryna’s Story
“On February 24th, we woke up to the noise, the war began. My husband and I decided we didn’t want our children to see the bombs and feel the fear. I crossed the border with my children, whilst my husband remained in Ukraine, in Odesa to help our people. We stayed in Chisinău for about a month and didn’t know what to do. We decided to travel to Canada, as my father has been living there for two years. We came to Toronto, and thank God that we have a roof over our heads. I am trying to learn new things and find a job. I understand for my father it will be very difficult to feed six people (including his wife and my brother), so I am trying to do everything quickly, and to move to another place and to be able to feed my children.”
