Ukrainian family embraces old, new traditions in first Christmas in Manitoba
The Korbetskyy family arrived in Winnipeg just over a month ago, but this holiday season is going to be very different for them.
“It’s very difficult to celebrate when you know that your brothers, sisters, your friends, they got involved in war in Ukraine, back in Ukraine. That there are bombings, tanks and rockets,” said Andriy Korbetskyy. The family came from the western Ukrainian city of Lviv. Andriy worked in veterinary medicine along with his wife Olha at the Institute of Animal Biology.
When they first moved to the province they lived in a hotel, but then they found a place to live and rented a house in the city. Like many Ukrainians, the Korbetskyys usually celebrate Orthodox Christmas on January 7, but this year, alongside many Canadians, they’re marking Christmas Day on December 25.
