Our Principles

Promoting Diversity. Empowering Communities. Uniting Canada.

The Canadian Council of Multiculturalism and Cohesion (COMAC) is a non-profit organisation committed to creating a more inclusive and socially cohesive Canada. Founded in 2021 and officially registered in Alberta in 2024, COMAC advocates for the rights and wellbeing of immigrants, refugees, Indigenous communities, and all underrepresented groups.

We believe in the power of diversity, the strength of unity, and the value of community-led change. Through education, outreach, and advocacy, we work to eliminate barriers, promote mutual respect, and empower people to build stronger, more connected communities.

The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something
