Canada and Ukraine to assist businesses

Embassy of Ukraine in Canada

OTTAWA - A protocol-agreement on cooperation was signed in Kyiv on September 27 by the Canadian-Ukrainian Business Initiative (CUBI) and the Ukrainian League of Small and Mid-size Privately-Run Businesses.

The document provides for the two parties' joint efforts in aiding Ukrainian and Canadian companies looking for eligible business partners. The program is supposed to last until the spring of 2000, when Kyiv hosts the CUBI-2000 conference.

The cooperation project, which dates back to 1997, is aimed at promoting Canadian-Ukrainian trade, attracting Canadian capital investment and creating many new jobs in unemployment-stricken Ukraine.
