For three years, Ukrainians have courageously and heroically defended their country and the freedom of Europe from Russia’s genocidal war.

The Russians thought they were embarking on a war of conquest that would last three days. Instead, three years later, Ukraine stands. Kyiv, the capital, is free. The Ukrainian people stand united in defiance to Russian tyranny. And we Stand With Ukraine!

It has been 1000 days since Ukraine and its people began their heroic resistance against brutal aggression. We gathered together not only to honor the memory of the victims but also to continue supporting those who are still fighting. This event served as an important reminder that our support doesn’t stop at moments of gathering—we stand with Ukraine every day.

The event featured bell chimes and sound visualizations, allowing everyone to experience the sounds of war—a way to feel and understand that the fight is ongoing, every minute of every day.

A special thanks to our partners: Russian Embassy Protestors and Maple Hope Foundation, as well as everyone who joined the event: our speakers, volunteers, and all those who continue to support Ukraine during these challenging times. Let this day remind us that our unity is the strength that brings victory closer.

🇺🇦 Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the heroes! Memory eternal to all victims of this war!

On October 27th, 2024 Ukrainian Canadian Congress - Ottawa Affiliate and Hon. Dr. Stanley Kutcher hosted the special event with Mykola Kuleba, Ukraine's former Children's Ombudsman (2014-2021) and founder of Save Ukraine.

They had an in-depth discussion about the process of returning deported children from the russian federation. They covered the challenges we face in the process of bringing these children home, the indoctrination methods used by russians on Ukrainian children in occupied territories, and the pressing need to collect evidence of war crimes. Dr. Kutcher and Mr.Kuleba also discussed the critical issue of how russian authorities are issuing draft notices to young Ukrainian men in russia and preparing them for war against Ukraine. 

The picnic for Ukraine's Independence Day in Ottawa became a vibrant event that brought together Ukrainians and friends of Ukraine. This celebration reminded us of our resilience, culture, and the importance of community unity even far from our homeland. 

One of the most touching moments was the unfolding of a 30-meter Ukrainian flag, symbolizing our solidarity and support for independence. The event was also filled with music, traditional cuisine, children's activities, and an opportunity for guests to socialize and strengthen connections. 

Such events demonstrate our strength, unity, and desire to support Ukraine. Thanks to everyone who joined us, and we invite you to follow announcements of future events! 💙💛

In partnership with the Embassy of Ukraine, on August 23, a solemn flag-raising ceremony took place in Canada. Our yellow and blue flag has been flying proudly at Ottawa City Hall since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, symbolizing the courage and resilience of the Ukrainian people. We are immensely grateful to the mayor and the residents of the city for their ongoing support.

The flag-raising served as a reminder that the Ukrainian community in Canada stands shoulder to shoulder with Ukraine in the fight for freedom and independence.

Together, we are stronger! Let’s continue to support our community and help Ukraine! 💙💛
