A Sooke man and his siblings, whose grandfather was swindled as a new arrival in the 1930s, have created a handbook for those escaping the war in Ukraine
A Sooke man is using a lesson his grandfather learned the hard way to give newly arrived Ukrainians a hand up in understanding local currency.
Remembering their grandfather’s ordeal, Romaniuk, his sister Sue in Ottawa and brother John in Toronto got together to create a handbook explaining Canadian currency for Ukrainians arriving in Canada to escape the war in their country. The family is paying to print the booklets, which are hand-delivered to Island recipients identified by Help Ukraine Vancouver Island, and by other charities helping Ukrainians in Ontario.Since the first one was handed out in April, 70 booklets have been delivered to new arrivals, half in Greater Victoria and half in Ontario, for a total of just over $13,000.
She said that there is a common misconception that the new arrivals are refugees, but the recent wave of arrivals is only in the country on three-year expedited work permits — not as refugees.
