An Act respecting Ukrainian Heritage Month
This bill designates the month of September each year as "Ukrainian Heritage Month" across Canada. It recognizes the historic and ongoing contributions of Ukrainian Canadians, commemorates the Holodomor, and affirms Canada’s support for Ukraine’s sovereignty. The act is purely symbolic, establishing an annual observance without creating new programs, spending, or regulatory powers. Its intent is education and celebration through public recognition and events.
Symbolic recognition may strengthen social cohesion but does not directly drive broad-based prosperity.
Creates no new red tape or deregulation; impact on economic freedom is negligible.
No direct measures to improve productivity, skills, or competitiveness.
Does not include trade or export provisions; any link to diaspora trade is indirect.
No investment or innovation mechanisms are created or reformed.
Adds a commemorative observance with negligible cost and no operational changes.
No tax policy changes are proposed.
The bill is purely symbolic and does not advance large-scale economic outcomes.
Did we get the builder vote wrong?
