CUCC AGM – National Scope and View on Ukraine

The Canada-Ukraine Chamber of Commerce Annual General Meeting was held at the UNF Toronto Trident Banquet Hall on May 15, 2012. There were approximately sixty people in attendance, with Mr. Lubomyr Kwasnycia serving as Master of Ceremonies. Special guests were Mr. Paul Grod, National President of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress who delivered special greetings, and Mr. Ihor Ostash, former Ambassador of Ukraine to Canada who presented an outline of the latest activities taking place in Ukraine.

Mr. Zenon Potichny (re-elected) gave the President’s Report on activities that had taken place during the last year. The several business forums were well attended and very well accepted. The CUCC Golf Tournament was a great success with a portion of the proceeds donated to the Shevchenko Foundation and the BCU Foundation. CUCC members also participated in the international forum and conference “Ukraine at the Crossroads” held in Ottawa, March 7-8, 2012.

Everyone was reminded to make plans and attend the CUCC Canada- Ukraine Business Forum “The Gateway for B2B Partnerships” to be held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, November 28-29, 2012. For details, visit www.cuccforum2012.com .
