In light of today's fast paced, shifting global Geo-political space, fore sighted individuals in Uganda, conceived the notion that Uganda must also adopt and adapt to meet these challenges.

They concluded that Uganda needs to modify and improve a new political and socioeconomic movement similar to an upheaval that can measure up to global changes. 

They determined that Uganda needed a new movement of people with a keen interest in advancing the sense patriotism, through responsible citizenship, national unity, accountability and service.

To this, these leaders thought it wise to be more inclusive and seek out all Ugandans living in diaspora as well and invite them actively participate in this movement.

In this spirit People living in Canada with Ugandan origin were sought. hence the formation of the movement in Canada that we now know as the Patriotic league of Uganda in Canada.

  Since our formation in Canada, we are embarking on mobilizing and bringing together Ugandans in Canada for the purpose of re-awakening their patriotic spirit and pride of their ethnic origin of Uganda.

PLU Canada started in 2025 as a diaspora branch of the PLU Movement in Uganda
