June 14, 2010 - It is with much sadness that the Ukrainian Canadian Congress Alberta Provincial Council must share the news of the sudden passing of Mr. Dave Broda. Former UCC-APC President, and a former Member of the Legislative Assembly in Alberta, Dave was a dedicated volunteer in our community. His wisdom, guidance and good nature will be very much missed by us all.
On behalf of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress Alberta Provincial Council, our Board of Directors and member organizations, we extend our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Dave Broda. Dave will be remembered as a great Albertan and Ukrainian Canadian who loved this province and his Ukrainian heritage. He served his constituents and community honourably. He was a strong team player, an excellent communicator and problem-solver. His commitment to local communities and councils showed time and time again his dedication and passion towards his endeavours. Vichnaya Pam'yat. Вічна Йому пам'ять. Daria Luciw, UCC-APC PresidentDivine Liturgy was held to honor Dave's life on June 21 at Exaltation of the Holy Cross Ukrainian Catholic Church, 9003 - 153 Avenue, Edmonton, AB

On behalf of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress Alberta Provincial Council, I am pleased to welcome all the delegates of the Canada-Ukraine Business Forum! This is an historical event for our community in Alberta and we are honoured to be the host community for your delegates. Alberta is a province with many opportunities and Ukrainian Canadians can be found in all sectors of business from agriculture and oil and gas, to manufacturing and environmental technologies. We are confident that many new links will be made among the delegates forging new business opportunities for both Alberta and Ukraine. The Ukrainian Community in Alberta is a vibrant and active community of almost 350,000 Ukrainians. Alberta is the province where our first Ukrainian pioneers settled almost 120 years ago and our roots in this province are very significant. We hope you have opportunity to learn about our history and community in this historic area as we welcome you with our traditional warm hospitality. Finally, we extend our congratulations to the organizers of the Forum on your vision and success! Daria LUCIW, President

April 12, Edmonton - The UCC-APC Letter of Support addressed to the Canadian Polish Congress of Alberta (Jaroslaw Nowinka, President, Teresa Szlamp-Fryga, Past President) 
On behalf of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress in Alberta and our entire Ukrainian community, we wish to express our heartfelt condolences to the people of Poland, Polish Canadians and the local Polish community, on the loss of Poland’s President Lech Kaczynski and the First Lady Maria Kaczynska, who died in the tragic plane crash in western Russia. We also wish to express condolences to the friends and families of the other passengers who died in this terrible accident. President Kaczynski was respected by Ukrainians for his dedication in fighting for the freedom of Poland and for the many sacrifices he made as part of the Solidarity movement. We were honoured to take part in the candlelight vigil on Sunday evening where several members of our Board of Directors and Ukrainian community added our prayers at this difficult time. This is a tragedy that cannot be put into words but we will honour their memories. Wieczny dpoczynek racz im dać Panie. Sincerely, Daria Luciw, UCC-APC President.

Feb. 11 - Full text of the UCC-APC Letter submitted to the Editor of the Edmonton Journal.The Ukrainian Canadian Congress – Alberta Provincial Council (UCC-APC) is stunned by the inaccurate column and editor-assigned heading to D. Marples’ article Feb .7..."Hero of Ukraine linked to Jewish killings; Honorary title sure to provoke divisions among Ukrainians today". We raise two critical points in this regard.
Our first criticism is towards the highly inflammatory heading assigned to this column, a heading, which is reminiscent of articles written in Alberta papers a century ago, which discriminated against various ethnic groups. Today, some 110 years later our office is receiving calls from respected individuals in Alberta society who are being harassed at work as a result of an inaccurate, inappropriate and sensational headline and column. Furthermore it is important to inform your readers of the change made to this column on the Edmonton Journal website as of Feb. 10. Today it reads "Yushchenko erred in honouring Bandera; Honorary title may provoke divisions among Ukrainians today". Our second critical point focuses on the misleading content of D. Marples' column, the content of which has been corrected by many letters to the Edmonton Journal, some which were published and many which were not. The superficial remarks and innuendo throughout this column do not reflect the purpose or conduct of Stepan Bandera or the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists. Regrettably, even with the change of the tone of the column online, the damage has been done. We urge the Edmonton Journal to allow space for a balanced and accurate article on this topic. Respectfully, UCC-APC President Daria Luciw
