Following an invitation from the Government of Ukraine and the Central Electoral Commission, a 422-strong independent bilateral election observation mission was mounted by CANADEM - dubbed Mission Canada – Ukraine Elections 2012 - to observe the parliamentary elections in Ukraine on October 28, 2012.
The mission’s objectives were to observe, record and report on whether the election result genuinely reflects the democratic expression of the voters of Ukraine. Mission Canada released its final report on 26 March 2013. Click here to download the reports.
CANADEM and Mission Canada wish to acknowledge the Government of Canada’s valuable financial support provided through the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) and the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT).
