Ukrainian Heritage Day
On
Thursday March 24th, 2011, the Ontario Legislature
unanimously passed Bill-155 the Ukrainian Heritage Day
Act which proclaimed September 7th of
each year Ukrainian Heritage Day in the province of Ontario.
Bill-155 was introduced by Gerry Martiniuk, MPP (Cambridge) and

Ukrainian Heritage Day provides a special opportunity to recognize

of Ukrainians seeking a better life here in Canada while celebrating
the contributions of Ukrainian Canadians across many communities
and walks of life to our province and our country.
