Memories Of Canada

-

I was surprised and delighted to see a letter about Fort St John BC, Canada, in the May 8 Between Friends page.

My oldest sister emigrated there after the war.

She married and had her family there.

I went out there in 1961 and stayed for about five or six months, and I worked for a while in the small hospital as a midwife. At that time British nursing certificat­es were accepted.

Unfortunat­ely, my sister and her husband have since passed away, but my two nephews still live in St John BC. My niece lives in Calgary and we had a lovely holiday there, too.

Mrs E.D., Motherwell.
