The province’s Ukrainian population is continuing to grow every day according to Immigration Minister Gerry Byrne.

The total number of Ukrainian refugees is currently over 1,800, with roughly one family being added to that total each day.

The province has sponsored four charter flights from Poland since the war began, but recently, newcomers have been arriving on their own terms.

A number of Ukrainians have arrived to other parts of Canada from Europe and have chosen to continue on to Newfoundland and Labrador. They’re also seeing some people who have settled in other provinces decide to leave and relocate in this province.
