The UNF counts among its organizing principles the universal values of "fair-play and justice in their proper prospective" with respect to all aspects of the Ukrainian cause.[1]

The Federation formed from a merger of three existing groups: the Ukrainian War Veterans’ Association of Canada, the Organization of Ukrainian Women of Canada and the Ukrainian National Youth Federation of Canada in 1932 with the first branches being inaugurated in Edmonton, Alberta and Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in 1932.

• A belief in duty and responsibility
• A belief in Canada
• A belief in social progress through reforms.
• A belief in cultural traditions.
• A belief in the moral principles of Christianity.
• A belief in freedom of all peoples.
