TORONTO — A large crowd of members of the Ukrainian community and politicians welcomed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his wife, Olena Zelenska, with a standing ovation when they walked into a Canadian Armed Forces facility in Toronto on
Zelenskyy, who is in Canada for the first time since Russian troops began a full-scale assault on Ukraine in February 2022, greeted the crowd with “Slava Ukraini,” a national salute that means glory to Ukraine.
"The fact that the whole community came up together to sing it together, it's just heartwarming. It brings me to tears," she said.Kalinova said it's hard for her and other Ukrainian Canadians to reconcile the fact that they are living in a safe place here in Canada while their family members and loved ones are suffering while fighting against the Russian invasion.
"I'm so proud to hear it in Canada," he said."It's so inspiring and it's not just inspiring to others, it helps us to become stronger." "The day will come when we gather at a similar place in Ukraine, many people, millions, cheering crowds, blue and yellow flags and Maple Leaf flags," he said to the cheering crowd.Uliana Hlynchak, who was at the event, said Zelenskyy has become a symbol for Ukrainian resistance.
Trudeau said Canada has supported Ukraine with almost $9 billion and will continue to provide support until it wins the war.
