And in school the Holodomor is taught together with the Holocaust as an example how an authoritarian government can abuse it's power.
People talk about it, people learn about and people remember it. You don't have pretend that it's swept under the rug when even Trudeau himself talks about it:
Canada fought a war over the other "H-Thing" and thousands of Canadian soldiers lost their lives. The Japanese did similar things in China and Korea and we don't talk about it as much. Or the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. History is self-centered. We talk mainly about things Canada was involved in. Do you think that the kids in the Ukraine talk about the Trail of Tears or the Canadian residential school system?
We have a large Ukrainian minority here in Sask. We have statues to honor and remember the victims:
