Large crowds gathered in downtown Toronto on Sunday for a “Mega March” to support Ukraine and to condemn Russia’s attack.

Crowds carrying Ukraine flags and anti-Putin signs gathered at Yonge and Dundas Square and marched towards Nathan Phillips Square to show their support for the people of Ukraine. Peter Schturyn, President of the Ukrainian-Canadian Congress, said the goal of the march is to “rally all Canadian Ukrainians, along with the Toronto community, to stand together and stand for our brothers and sisters in Ukraine.”

The Canadian federal government is ratcheting up sanctions against Russia, announcing earlier today that it has closed Canada’s airspace to all Russian airlines.

The federal government also announced it will be sending an additional $25 million worth of protective gear to Ukraine.

The move comes after Ottawa imposed sanctions on a number of Russian individuals and entities, including Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Canada has also said it will match all donations to the Red Cross’s Ukraine Humanitarian Crisis Appeal up to $10 million.

The Ontario government has announced it will be donating $300,000 in humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

The money will be donated to the Canada-Ukraine Foundation and used to “support humanitarian purposes” including “providing medical aid, emergency shelter and food security” in Ukraine.

Many other Eastern European communities were represented at the "mega march", including Estonians, Latvians, Lithuanians, Belorussians and others.

Dear Activist, er, I mean Irony:

So now you tell 2 lies about me and are still slinking in the shadows like a coward.

Just like you spitting your own poison, defaming the characters of those running the KESKUS project. No wonder you were booted off the board.
Markus Alliksaar07 Mar 2022 00:05
Dear What?

And you promote unity and healing by demanding things you don't agree with be banned?

No wonder you don't have the courage to use your own name.
