HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MEMBERS! We are all still here and the Y2K bug is not.
Many thanks to Borys Sydoruk for his informative talk on 3 areas of concern impacting Ukrainians in Canada.
The Koliada was a huge success thanks to the hard work of several members and the choirs and to the good people from "Echoes of Ukraine" TV Program Cable Channel 66.
Our December dinner meeting was unique in that representatives of the Polish community attended after an all day session on doing business in Central Europe. I would like to thank Oksana Hnatiuk for organizing this event.
