Wandering the Edge

The Blue and Yellow Maple Leaf: Ukrainian-Canadian Second World War Veterans


Listen Later

Thousands of Ukrainian-Canadians joined the Canadian Armed Forces during the Second World War - this episode will look at some of their histories, where they came from, why they joined, what they experienced during the war and what they did in their post-war lives. Along the way, you'll get a review of some French restaurants in Kyiv and an explanation of how Ukrainians always manage to find other Ukrainians - even among the world war!
