Solidarity and Freedom: UCSS Ottawa Representatives Join Lithuanian Independence Day Celebrations

Recently, representatives of our UCSS Ottawa branch were honoured to attend a festive reception commemorating the Restoration of the State Day of Lithuania, held at the prestigious National Arts Centre (NAC). It was an evening of great significance and warmth. We enjoyed the opportunity to reconnect with old friends and forge new connections within Ottawa’s vibrant community. The event was held with the utmost dignity, featuring powerful speeches that underscored the vital importance of freedom and independence — values that resonate deeply with us all today.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Lithuanian community and the Embassy of Lithuania for the invitation. Lithuania continues to be a steadfast friend of Ukraine, and events like this strengthen the bonds of solidarity and our shared commitment to a free and democratic future.
