Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre issued separate statements Wednesday to commemorate Black Ribbon Day, the National Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Communism and Nazism in Europe.
“On Black Ribbon Day, we remember the millions of men, women, and children who suffered and lost their lives at the hands of the Soviet and Nazi regimes in Europe,” Mr. Trudeau said in his statement on Aug. 23.
