Ukraine’s ambassador to Canada Yuliya Kovaliv is urging Canadian businesses to see her country’s eventual recovery as an economic bonanza worth investing in.

“We are fighting, we will win the war with your support and then we’ll have a big path together to rebuild Ukraine,” Yuliya Kovaliv told at the event for business groups hosted by the Canadian Club of Ottawa in Ottawa.

“Many of you who are from the private sector, you need to start to think about your strategy in participating in the rebuilding of Ukraine,” she said.

Yuliya Kovaliv told the Canadian Club of Ottawa that Ukraine will need a Marshall Plan-style funding package to get back on its feet when the war ends, and Canadian businesses should strategize about what role they can play.
