I would like to thank all of you, members of Crimean Tatars Community of Canada for your dedication and hard work throughout the year. It is an appropriate time to reflect on the challenges we have overcome and accomplishments that we have achieved in the past year.
A significant contribution of our members was bringing all Crimean Tatars from Diaspora under one umbrella and easy their way to create the “Crimean Tatars Congress”. This in itself does not guaranty our success , however, with the proper focus and attention to our cause we have the opportunity to became the most significant player in the Tatarworld.
As we begin to face the new challenges that lie ahead, I am confident that through hard work and dedication we can achieve our goals. In closing, I would like to take this opportunity to wish all of you and your respective families a Happy Ney Year.

Sincerely,
Iskender Ibram
President, Crimean Tatar Community of Canada
The Qirim Tatar Cultural Association of Canada
is based on a dream – a dream that one day, we as Tatars, unite from all over the world and celebrate our traditions in the face of today most turbulent and challenging times. For this reason, we have created a non-profit and non-political organization that promotes our rich Crimean Tatar art and culture across Canada. In addition, the association was established to promote a Tatar network in which members would be able to assist each other in times of need.
Immigrating to a new country with different political, economical, and social standards can be a very exciting but, at times, difficult journey. One of the primary goals of the Crimean Tatar of Canada is to unite the members of the Tatar community so that we may embrace our fellow newcomers as they begin their new lives in Canada. Through our guidance and support, we can help new immigrants and their families access appropriate government services at the federal, provincial, and local levels. Ultimately, we hope that through our united efforts and support, we can help ease their transition process as they adapt to Canadian society. At a national level, we wish to integrate our efforts and provide relief to those who have suffered from epidemics, earthquakes, flood, fire, and other natural disasters.
Now, more than ever, we need to come together as a family of Tatar brothers and sisters and proudly rejoice in our culture and traditions. With your generosity, compassion, and willingness to help each other, we can begin the better life that our ancestors had envisioned for us and provide a brighter future for our children.
