Today, along with the Ukrainian Canadian Congress – Manitoba, and our partners at Economic Development Winnipeg, and The Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce, the Manitoba Chambers of Commerce signed on to a joint letter to Premier Heather Stefanson and other members of Cabinet, to urge the Province to move swiftly in preparing for and extending a welcome to Ukrainian refugees.
“In light of Manitoba’s large and organized Ukrainian community, we are uniquely positioned to welcome those seeking refuge on a temporary or permanent basis. Our organizations are prepared to work with the provincial government to ensure any individuals that come to Manitoba are welcomed and provided with opportunities during these challenging times.”
