Canada and Ukraine have concluded negotiations on the Customs Mutual Legal Assistance Agreement. This new agreement will ensure the proper application of customs legislation and will prevent and combat customs infringements. “I can tell you that we have made progress in the youth mobility agreement. Ukraine has already received Canadian proposals on this very important treaty and is currently considering them. I think we have every chance of moving forward on this issue,” said Ukraine`s Ambassador to Canada, Andriy Shevchenko, during hearings at the Standing Committee on National Defence of the House of Commons of Canada, as reported by a Ukrinform correspondent. He added that it was possible to get an agreement on youth mobility that would allow students to come to Canada for the academic year. The Youth Mobility Agreement provides for simplified entry permits and simplified work permits. If you have a refugee travel document issued by a country that has a youth mobility agreement with Canada, you are not allowed to participate. The new Democrats believe that an essential first step in supporting Ukraine is to reach an agreement allowing Ukrainians visa-free access to Canada. Such an agreement would facilitate contacts between Canadian and Ukrainian civil society organizations, an important element in helping to strengthen reform efforts in Ukraine.
It would also build on the success of the Canada-Ukraine free trade agreement in the mutual interest of both economies. It would be a regime similar to the one that Ukraine has with the European Union and would supplement Canadians` visa-free access to Ukraine. This is a priority issue for the Ukrainian government. In addition, Canada should restart the Youth Mobility Agreement with Ukraine, which allows qualified Ukrainians to apply and work within Canada for up to one year. This program ended in 2010. The new Democrats recommend developing and strengthening our relationship between Parliament and Parliament. This should include technical assistance from the Ukrainian parliament in strengthening accountability mechanisms based on our experience with institutions such as the Auditor`s Office and the Public Finance Committee.
