On August 3, 2017, The City of Steinbach hosted a citizenship ceremony, welcoming a group of new citizens to Canada, their official new permanent home.

“Most of these new Canadians spent close to six years going through the process and completing the necessary requirements to receive their citizenship,” said Ted Falk, Member of Parliament for Provencher. “We are thrilled that they have decided to call Canada their permanent home. I’m sure that today is a day they will never forget.”

A total of 46 new citizens were welcomed to Canada as part of the official citizenship ceremony.
