A lack of information from the federal government has forced some Ukrainians fleeing the war to turn to social media for help when they land at Toronto's Pearson Airport.

Jane and Joe Lewis opened their home to 34-year-old Alexey, centre, who found himself stuck at Toronto Pearson Airport after fleeing the war in Ukraine.

"I was very stressed at this moment," said Alexey, who told CBC News many people he called wouldn't help him. Douglas Scandrett says he was already in bed when he saw an urgent post on the Facebook group titled "Canada Hosts Ukraine" asking for someone to pick up Alexey at the airport. "Now what we're seeing is because these people are so desperate for anywhere to stay, a lot of them consider lying about their vaccine status so they'll get two weeks in a quarantine hotel — that's also had to be a survival instinct for them."

"Details on how eligible Ukrainians and their families can access the program will be made available soon."In a statement, the City of Toronto says the situation is evolving quickly, and it's working closely with the federal and provincial governments as well as community agencies to identify issues as they emerge and deal with the influx of Ukrainian refugees.

That’s because the government doesn’t give a poop about Ukraine and Ukrainians. All they’ve wanted to do is use them to take down Russia because Russia won’t bow to the western elites. Same thing happened in Syria, Iraq, Bosnia etc. etc.

Guys just dip into that untapped pile of dough the government hasn’t taken from you and give it to the corrupt government of another country Business needs to be careful on who they are giving donations too.

Good to hear, Ukrainians need & deserve our help. We can share our bounty and offer them safety thru this horrific time for them. Yep, keep them there Ukrainians fleeing to Canada, should not be allowed to congregate and spread the ideology of hate. Many in that community are very hateful towards everything except other white ppl. I’m very horrified by this level of hatred.
