February 26th marked the 7th year of Russian aggression and the day of Crime(a). The day of resistance to the occupation of the peninsula by Russia. Ukrainians around the world have come together to draw the attention of people around the world to Russia's crimes in the occupied Crimea.

Together, Ukraine and the international community must remain steadfast against the war of aggression being waged by the Russian Federation and prioritize the restoration of Ukraine’s territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders.

We were busy last month putting together a beautiful collection of stories read out loud by community leaders. We chose these kazky, tales, and poems to show our kids the strength and encourage them to dig deep. Let's continue to use literature to gain insight into resilience and resourcefulness.

Thank you so much to our readers - Most Rev. Bishop David Motiuk, MLA Jackie Armstrong-Homeniuk (Vegreville-Fort-Saskatchewan), Nataliya Nayavko (Special Language Consultant with Alberta Education), Orysia Boychuk (President, UCC-APC), Taras Podilsky (Principal, St. Brendan School), Iryna Tatko (Senior Interpreter, Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village).
