Jareer WeyneSociety of AlbertaThe Somali Bantu Jareer/weyne are a proud people of Somalia with their own Bantu heritage, languages and traditions. For generations our community worked to be recognized and treated with equal dignity, and that strength continues to guide us today.
Our ancestors settled in the arable Juba and Shabelle river valleys as farmers. Through every challenge, our community has kept its rich cultural heritage while building new lives in Canada through resilience, unity and determination.
Our team brought home silver medals from the 2026 Alberta Soccer Provincial Championships. A proud moment for the players, their families and our whole community.
