Our History
The Association of United Ukrainian Canadians has evolved through a number of organizational stages due to conditions and climate of the time. It came on the scene as the Ukrainian Labour Temple Association (1918 - 1924), followed by the Ukrainian Labour-Farmer Temple Association (1925 - 1946), the Ukrainian Association to Aid the Fatherland (1941 - 1946); and finally, the Association of United Ukrainian Canadians (1946).

AUUC statement Seizing the Moment for a Negotiated Peace
For more than three years, Ukraine has been the victim of war—longer if you include the internal conflict that began in 2014 with the Maidan protests and the subsequent toppling of Yanukovych.
Read the Full StatementCanada Must Give Justice to Those Who Suffered Under Nazism
Last week the Ottawa Citizen published a story in which it reported that a decision by the Federal Government to release the names of 900 alleged Nazi war criminals who came to Canada following World War Ii was being reconsidered after Library and Archives Canada consulted with a select group of individuals and organizations that opposed the release of the names. The Ottawa Citizen article reported this included an organization of Ukrainian Canadians that it did not name.

A subsequent article reported that the Ukrainian Canadian Congress was considering launching a court to prevent the release.
Read Ottawa Citizen ArticleUkrainian group says it plans court challenge .....
The Association of United Unkrainian Canadians (AUUC) was not consulted by Library and Archives Canada - had it been, it would have unequivocally supported the release of the names. F urthermore, the AUUC does not support the action of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress.
The AUUC National Executive Committee has issued the following statement on the issue of the release of the names of alleged Nazi war criminals (long held secret by the Canadian government), and the possible action of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress to block this through the courts:
"The Association of United Ukrainian Canadians has consistently fought for this history to be brought to light. We did so in the past and continue to do so at the present time. The efforts of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress to block the truth from finally coming to light is a great disservice to Canadians, to Canadians of Ukrainian descent and to the people of Ukraine who suffered grievously at the hands of fascism during World War II."

National President, Association of United Ukrainian Canadians.
Ukraine's Independence Day Greetings
August 24, 2024
August 24 is Ukraine’s Independence Day and the Association of United Ukrainian Canadians marks this day with heavy hearts as we continue to witness Ukrainian and its people burdened by war, and the immense destruction it has brought.
At this very grave moment for Ukraine, and the Ukrainian people, the AUUC hopes that war will yield to peace. We are heartened by the recent visit of India’s Prime Minister Modi to Ukraine and the commitment made by India to work for an end to the war; this followed the visit of Ukraine’s Foreign Minister to China to secure China’s support for peace negotiations.
As an organization representing more than 100 years of activity of the Ukrainian Canadian diaspora, we have always supported the rights of the Ukrainian people to live in freedom, security, prosperity and peace. The AUUC was among the first organizations to send its greetings to the people of Ukraine in 1991 on their independence.
On this Independence Day we extend our best thoughts and wishes to the people of Ukraine, and the many who have fled the war and now make Canada their new home. The AUUC will continue its earnest work for peace and to support the humanitarian needs of the Ukrainian people.
Glenn Michalchuk
National President, Association of United Ukrainian Canadians.
A Pillar of the Ukrainian-Canadian Community Dies at 93
Myron Shatulsky passed away recently after a life time of cultural activism and commitment to his Ukrainian heritage. He will be remembered as someone deeply embedded in the service to others and resistance to oppression. While he engaged his Ukrainian-Canadian community in many ways, it was his love of music and song that conveyed his passion so poignantly.

The Herald is Back!
The title of the lead article of the February 2020 issue of the Ukrainian Canadian Herald (UCH) is: “Our Last Issue”. In writing the lead, its long-time editor, Wilfred Szczesny, realized that his failing health would not permit him to carry the heavy work load associated with producing the newspaper. While the print edition would be no more, he knew others would carry on with the mandate the Association of United Ukrainian Canadians (AUUC) had given – bring the UCH online as part of the new website the AUUC was developing.

Ukrainian Labour Temple Grand Opening
October 2, 2021
On Saturday October 2nd, 2021, an official reopening ceremony was held at the newly renovated and restored Ukrainian Labour Temple..
Built in 1919 by the Ukrainian Labour Temple Association (today the Association of United Ukrainian Canadians), the Ukrainian Labour Temple has been designated a National, Provincial and Municipal historic site because of its architectural significance and its role as the centre of progressive social movements that shaped our city and our country.
The building remains in the hands of the organization that laid the cornerstone and erected the building in1918-1919. For this reason it is also has a rich and unbroken historical heritage connected to social and working class history. To this day it serves as a centre of cultural and political activity.
