We first visited the permanent exhibit in 2020 and learned about immigration to Canada through Pier 21 including ancestors from the Ukraine who later migrated west to Manitoba. The Family History Centre researcher was excellent. We walked-in and in less than 20 minutes, she provided us with valuable papers we did not have on both sets of my grandparents' arrival in Halifax.
