Every year as we mark this day, we acknowledge the importance of Ukrainian embroidery as a symbol of unity.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5916610\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Today and in the coming weeks, Canadians of Ukrainian heritage will wear their embroidered shirts to remind one another of the struggles they had to overcome to establish an independent state, which Canada was the first to recognize. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5916611\" data-originallang=\"en\">Vyshyvanka unites all Ukrainians living at home and abroad. It serves as an important reminder of the ongoing challenges Ukraine is facing today. We will always stand with the people of Ukraine in their struggle for sovereignty and territorial integrity, and we will never recognize the illegal annexation of Crimea and occupation of Donbass.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5916612\" data-originallang=\"en\">On behalf of Canada's Conservatives, I thank all members of the Ukrainian community in Canada for organizing and taking part in the multiple events commemorating this special day.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5916613\" data-originallang=\"en\">Happy Vyshyvanka Day.</p>",
