Mayor Terry Yemen is heading back to the Ukraine to do his part in ensuring that democracy around the world is respected.
Yemen is going to observe municipal elections, as part of a Canadem team. This is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping countries achieve peace and security through the mobilization and mission management of experts from across Canada and around the world committed to international service.
The Town of Drumheller does not fund his mission.
He said typically teams for this type of mission have 200-300 members. This time he is one of 60 being deployed. Yemen departs on October 19.
This will be his fourth mission with Canadem to Ukraine. The first was in 2012, for the Ukraine Parliamentary elections and then twice in 2014.
