UCC planning session focuses on new vision for 21st century

WINNIPEG - A new vision for the 21st century was the focal point of a planning session of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress (UCC) as the executive and committee chairpersons of the UCC met in Winnipeg on December 4 at the UCC's annual planning session.

The planning process included an analysis of a survey, a review of achievements of the past year, for setting of goals and objectives, and the development of an action plan for the year 2000-2001.

The plan envisions strenthening communications with UCC member-organizations, provincial councils, branches and the community in general. The UCC also focused on developing strategies in dealing with the government of Canada on the following issues: denaturalization and deportation; the internment of Ukrainians during World War I; the establishment of a Canadian Museum of Genocide; and multiculturalism.

The UCC has determined that it is vital to engage the community in a dialogue to create a new vision for the 21st century. To accomplish this task the UCC invites the community to bring forward creative ideas for change and renewal.
