Hopeful and upset are just some of the multiple feelings Ukrainians and Winnipeggers were experiencing at a rally in Winnipeg Friday evening.
Several hundred showed up outside of the Canadian Museum of Human Rights to show support for Ukraine on the one-year anniversary of Russia invading Ukraine.
“The war has been dragging on this long. It’s crazy that this day and age an aggressive country can invade its peaceful neighbour and do what they do, with committing war crimes and killing civilians,” said Demyan Hyworok, the chair of the charitable and educational trust for the Ukrainian Canadian Congress.
He said a rally marking the one-year anniversary is important to hold so that it stays in everyone’s mind.
