Quiet holidays for Battlefords immigrants
Canadians with Ukranian heritage are set to celebrate Ukranian Christmas on Jan. 7. However, they weren’t the only Canadians that have a different experience around the holidays. The holiday season is often an overwhelming time for families and even more so for those experiencing them in a different country. Fortunately, there are groups dedicated to supporting them as they transition. The Battlefords Immigrant Resource Centre (BIRC) helps newcomers to Canada in their adjustment to the area and try to provide as much joy and goodwill as possible in December.
