<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Canadian in Ukraine has made the excruciating decision to flee Kyiv for Poland in the hope that he can soon get safe passage to Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the three months leading up to Russia’s invasion of its neighbour, Dayton Snow of Medicine Hat, Alta., had been living in Kyiv with his father Darren and his Ukrainian wife, teaching English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Snow’s father Darren told CTV National News’ National Affairs Correspondent Omar Sachedina that the violence he heard outside his apartment makes him want to leave the country like his son.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Is there going to be a blast through the window at that time?” Darren Snow said. “I was there for three night hearing bombs. You can’t sleep. It’s very stressful.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Wednesday, Darren Snow made it to Lviv in order to get a bus out of Ukraine. Even with a ticket leaving from Lviv’s central bus depot, travellers aren’t guaranteed a spot on one of the buses destined for Poland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the UN refugee agency UNHCR, more than 800,000 people have fled Ukraine<\/a> as of Wednesday morning to neighbouring countries since the start of Russia’s invasion last week, adding that the number is on track to surpass one million by the end of the day. And earlier this week, UNHCR spokeswoman Shabia Mantoo cautioned that the outflows from Ukraine could make it the source of the \u201cbiggest refugee crisis this century.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Lviv’s terminal, Snow waited for his bus to Poland, which was half an hour late. With no information, Snow went to look for where the bus might pull in, but the next one that did still wasn’t his.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It’s crazy right now as you can see,” Snow said. “Full-blown crisis.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
