Erast R. Huculak Award for Academic Excellence and Community Service

Erast Huculak was born in Ukraine in 1930. He immigrated to Canada in 1948 and despite linguistic and other challenges, completed his degree in Pharmacy at the University of British Columbia. Moving to Ontario, he founded and presided over Medical Pharmacies, a retail pharmacy chain that soon became one of the largest providers of pharmaceuticals to Long Term Care in Canada. His professional success enabled him to engage in many humanitarian and philanthropic endeavors for which he was recognized with numerous awards, including three Honourary Doctorate degrees and in 2006, the Order of Canada. While never forgetting and always helping his native Ukraine, Erast frequently expressed his appreciation for the opportunities Canada provided him and vigorously advocated for giving back to community and country
