The Prairie Immigration Experience website is a collection of nearly 15,000 digitized archival documents, including diaries, correspondence, photographs, and audio and video recordings from the holdings of the University of Manitoba Archives & Special Collections, the University of Saskatchewan Archives, and the archives of Oseredok, the Ukrainian Cultural and Educational Centre. These archival records detail the experiences of the hundreds of thousands of immigrants of varied nationalities and ethnicities, who came to Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta.
Brett Lougheed, the Digital Archivist of the U of M Archives & Special Collections, was the person who helped coordinate this important project, and ensured that many of the U of M’s ethnically related collections (including those comprising the Archives of the Ukrainian Canadian Experience) appeared on this site.
