Just wanted to make everybody aware of the 90th anniversary Stalin's starvation of millions of Ukrainians.

Fast forward to today and Putin is reading from Stalin's playbook, genocide of the Ukrainian people all over again.

Yes the Bolsheviks infiltrated Russia with the same ideology as todays woke. Morality thrown out the window, the family unit muddied, genders confused, total control handed over to the state. The woke disease that killed 70million is still fresh in the mind of the Russians and unlike the west, they will not let them in to destroy their culture and community.

Germany funded Lenin to take Russia out of the war.

Study of Holodomor genocide in Ukraine to be included in Grade 10 Canadian history course

Today, November 28th, Minister Lecce announced that the Ontario government mandated the study of the 1932-33 Holodomor - a man-made famine orchestrated by the Soviet regime in Ukraine 90 years ago, to be included in Grade 10 Canadian history course beginning in September of 2025. This is a momentous news for the Ukrainian Canadian community that lobbied tirelessly to make this brutal campaign of Joseph Stalin against Ukrainian identity and existence that claimed millions of lives, known. Canada was the first country in the world that in 2008 recognized Holodomor as genocide of Ukrainians, and now, including Holodomor in the curriculum will ensure our youth learns about adverse consequences of extreme political ideologies like those of totalitarian communist regime, in the classroom. “The rise of extremism, including Communism and Marxism, are direct threats to our democracy, social cohesion and values as Canadians,” said Stephen Lecce, Minister of Education. “I am determined to strengthen education on our shared values, including by mandating learning about the horrors of state-sponsored persecution of Ukrainians in the Holodomor in Grade 10 Canadian History. This learning will help ensure students are never bystanders in the face of such horrors, understand the danger of totalitarianism and help safeguard fundamental Canadian values of freedom and democracy over communist extremism.”

The Canada-Ukraine Foundation is also deeply grateful to the Government of Ontario for reinforcing this learning by investing $400,000 to support the Holodomor National Awareness Tour and the Holodomor Mobile Classroom (HMC) that will enable the HMC to travel to schools across the province and engage students in grades 6 to 12 through the experiential learning directly linked to the Ontario curriculum. The Canada-Ukraine Foundation developed Holodomor National Awareness Tour in 2014 to foster education and bring awareness of the Holodomor to Canadians. To date, the Holodomor Mobile Classroom engaged over 70,000 people across Canada and had visited more than 500 schools.

The Holodomor Mobile Classroom is a unique learning environment that uses cutting-edge technology to fully immerse and assist students in learning about the Holodomor in a digital classroom on wheels. The fusion of technologies and interactive content that was developed for this program, defines an entirely new way to conduct lessons allowing both the facilitator and students to actively engage with each other.

This year, the Holodomor Mobile Classroom traveled Eastern and Western Canada, and just last week, was in Ottawa to mark the 90th anniversary of Holodomor on the Parliament Hill.

We are very grateful to the Donors who made the travels of the Holodomor Mobile Classroom possible over the years and look forward to many more thanks to the support of the Government of Ontario! Today’s announcement ensures that students will learn about the unknown chapter in Ukrainian history, and that they will continue to embrace and value democracy, freedom, human rights, and the rule of law that Canada holds in the highest regard.

So glad our ancestors flew the coup over 100 years ago. The Ukrainians like many others have been persecuted many times over. A volunteer in Saskatoon tells me that most of the recent immigrants can’t wait to go back to Ukraine, go figure.

Maybe they want to go back because they see Ukraine nearing the end of the fight, and Canada at the beginning.

Thanks for the post Littledoggie, Holodomor education should be part of the curriculum in all schools in Manitoba.

The Manitoba government just announced to include Holocaust education in the curriculum, Orange shirt day is also in the works to become a stat holiday in Manitoba.

It's only a matter of time before the Holodomor forms part of the curriculum in Manitoba schools, especially with Manitoba's large population of Ukrainian descendants.

Holodomor education should be part of the curriculum across the country. Alberta is also going to include Holocaust education. I wrote to them requesting Holodomor education as well as curriculum on Mao's cultural revolution. And while I'm at it - Walter Duranty should be stripped of his Pulitzer Prize for covering up the Holodomor when he knew it was happening. Shame on the UK, the US and other western nations for turning a blind eye.

Every culture has BUTCHERED other cultures, endless guilt. Still happening, man's inhumanity to man.

Watched "The Promise" on Netflix, Armenian Christians living/working in the Ottoman Empire were murdered by Turks, 1914. Just because....

The Holodomor took place 90 years ago and obviously Putin's current genocide of Ukrainians shows he has a lot of guilt.

Besides, WTF does religion have to do with Stalin's and Putin's genocides of Ukrainians?

Exactly why these particular genocides are important. Nothing to do with religion.

History is meant to learn from
some never do
trying to whitewash it or change it is bullshit like these woke prick’s are trying to do now
young people need to see every detail , every pic and hopefully learn from it
the only problem with history, is that it takes so long
