Sheri De Gagné checked out some of the information displayed outside the Holodomor bus, which stopped at the Fort Frances Public Library on Saturday during its national awareness tour. Promoting awareness of the Soviet-orchestrated famine, the mobile classroom featured short videos shown on a 30-foot video wall. The tour, a project of the Canada-Ukraine Foundation, began last month at the Capital Ukrainian Festival in Ottawa, is travelling through Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario, and will wrap up in North Bay at the end of this week.
