Polish Alliance of Canada Enterprises and Agencies

The Polish Alliance of Canada has long supported its community through key initiatives. The Alliancer, established in 1933, served as both the organization’s voice and a broader Polish-Canadian newspaper, covering cultural, social, political, and literary topics. PAC Travel and Tours Ltd., originating from the Excursion Committee in 1959, organized trips, chartered flights, and tours to Poland. Place Polonaise, opened in the early 1970s on Lake Ontario in Grimsby, became a cultural and entertainment hub, hosting community events, exhibitions, and celebrations.
Place Polonaise
Polish Cultural & Entertainment Center
Place Polonaise became one of the Polish Alliance of Canada’s most ambitious and symbolic projects. The centre quickly became an important gathering place for cultural celebrations, educational events and national commemorations. It served as a proud symbol of Polish heritage and achievement in Canada. Despite its great success and significance, rising maintenance costs and financial difficulties, led to its decline and eventual sale during the PAC’s centennial year. Nevertheless, Place Polonaise remains an enduring symbol of the vision, dedication, and volunteer spirit of generations of Polish-Canadians.

Connecting Polish-Canadians to Their Homeland
The Polish Alliance of Canada’s Excursion Committee, founded in 1959, initially organized small trips to Poland but became highly successful after Branch 2 in Hamilton expanded its operations. By the 1960s and 1970s, it coordinated chartered flights, sightseeing tours, and group trips for thousands of Polish-Canadians, eventually forming the official travel agency PAC Travel and Tours Ltd.
