A young Ukrainian couple has found safety in Vancouver as nightmares persist of their home country left in ruin by Russia's military invasion.
Twenty-five-year-old Daria Dubova says she’s happy to have found a new home in downtown Vancouver with her 22-year-old boyfriend Liubomyr Omelianiuk — not unlike many their age seeking new opportunities in a big city.
With some spare time, the couple has found peaceful moments walking in Stanley Park and along the city’s beaches. And to Dubova’s surprise, they’ve needed snow boots. It was last February when Russian bombs started raining down on Ukrainian military targets and soon thereafter civilian infrastructure, such as parks and apartments.
Omelianiuk said he wanted to fight, and the couple had difficult conversations about what to do over the following five months until their work permits to Canada were accepted.
