2011 - A Year in Review, A Year to Remember

Dear Friends of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress,

As we approach the end of 2011, we would like to reflect on a special milestone that we celebrated this 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 (1914-20) in Canada’s newest taxpayer funded museum.

To start off 2011, UCC launched celebrations of 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.
