'We will stand with Ukraine with everything it takes for as long as it takes until we see peace return in Ukraine,' Prime Minister Trudeau said at a solidarity march in Toronto.
Yellow and blue flags and shouts of "Slava Ukraini" filled the streets of downtown Toronto on Friday evening as thousands gathered to show support for Ukraine on the one-year anniversary of Russia's invasion.
"The one-year anniversary of Russia's war on Ukraine is a sombre reminder of the need for urgent action to resolve this ongoing crisis," march's organizer Marc Shwec said in a press release. "We cannot afford to allow this conflict to continue with the ongoing humanitarian and security risks it poses."
"I am consistently taken by his courage and his resilience. He had stared down Putin's threats since before the invasion. He has rallied support from around the world. He is giving hope to his people," Trudeau said. In his remarks, Ford praised the determination of the Ukrainian people over the last year, calling it "truly inspirational."
"It's been a year of most remarkable resistance that the world history knows. It's been a resistance of a country that was not prepared for the full-scale war with one of the biggest aggressors -- military aggressors -- and military-equipped countries in the world. But this country resisted and stayed strong," Khometa said.
The ceremony was attended by Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie as well as the Consul General of Ukraine in Toronto Oleksandr Shevchenko and Ukrainian Canadian Congress President Petro Schturyn.
