As we begin 2012, we would like to reflect on a special milestone that we celebrated this past year, 120 years of Ukrainian Settlement in Canada and share some of the accomplishments achieved by the Ukrainian Canadian Congress (UCC). Thanks to you, we have made some real strides on behalf of the Ukrainian Canadian community. Our recent efforts have focussed on ensuring that the Canadian Museum for Human Rights fairly and equitably represents the Holodomor of 1932-33, as well as Canada’s first national internment operations in Canada’s newest taxpayer funded museum. UCC launched the 120th Anniversary of Ukrainian Settlement in Canada and launched a new logo to commemorate this historical year. The logo was designed by artist Oleh Lesiuk. We also held our first ever Ukrainian Day on Parliament Hill. For a full list of highlights from 2011 Click Here These successes are just a few from a long list of achievements accomplished in 2011. We would like to thank you for your continuing support, without which; none of these milestones could have been reached. Your support, your actions, and your generous donations have helped to inform the government of Canada on our concerns domestically and internationally. They have promoted Ukrainian language, culture and sports, and have made 2011 an unprecedented year for UCC. But as you know, these battles must be fought continuously and be won again and again. Together, we must remain committed to building and maintaining a strong and vibrant Ukrainian Canadian community. Yours sincerely, Paul Grod, President |
