Three Ukrainian children, adopted by an Edmonton woman, have been granted visas to return to Canada after being stranded in Mexico for months.
Ostapiv accepts responsibility and admits it’s her mistake for not understanding the limits of the visa.
“I just simply ask, please help me to fix this,” she said Thursday, adding the kids suffered because of her misunderstanding. “I took responsibility for those kids. They trust me. They like to stay here.”Supplied: Olga OstapivThe search for Lake Huron flying object is being suspended.
The kids have been looking forward to once again attending summer events they took in when they first arrived in Edmonton, like the Heritage Festival. “The worst scenario is to send them back home,” she said, explaining they’d be housebound in a region with no power or in-person school. “They lost connection with their friends and schoolmates in the Ukraine. And their first question was, how can we back now?”
