🇺🇦 Celebrating Ukrainian Independence Day in Canmore

It was an honour to be part of the Ukrainian Independence Day Festival in Canmore, a celebration that brought together local residents and newly arrived Ukrainian community members. Events like this are about more than festivities—they are an opportunity for our community to show solidarity, support, and welcome to those who have faced immense struggles in recent years.

The strength and resilience of the Ukrainian community are truly inspiring. Despite challenges, they come together, celebrate their culture, and support one another no matter where in the world they are. Their courage and determination serve as a reminder of the power of community, connection, and perseverance.

As a community, we are stronger when we support each other, especially during difficult times. Being part of this festival reaffirmed the importance of standing with one another, of showing up, and of creating spaces where everyone feels welcomed and valued.

Canmore is richer when we come together to celebrate diversity, lift each other up, and honour the resilience of all members of our community. The Ukrainian community has shown remarkable strength, and we are committed to continuing to support them as neighbours, friends, and fellow community members.
