They both speak English quite well and already have a plan for getting setup with SIN, bank accounts, etc. Both want to stay in Canada long term and get PR eventually. Couldn't be happier with just how great they are. They are both from Kherson city. Thankfully most of their family have escaped to Spain. But some of their older relatives are still in Kherson, older members who didn't want to leave. Looking forward to sitting down with them with some beer and vodka and learning about their lives.

I don't know if it's just me but at more and more places I go to, it seems like I am encountering what sounds like a Ukrainian working there - from the Calgary Parking Authority to the Tire Shop, etc. They could be dirty Russian spies but if they are Ukrainians, I'm happy they are finding work here!
