A thousand days of terror, destruction, and death is not the kind of anniversary one wants to celebrate. Nor is the upcoming 3rd anniversary since the full-scale invasion (February 24).
But, … here we are. A thousand days of war. And a thousand days of Canadians doing many things to support Ukraine.
Across Canada, there have been demonstrations and marches to mark the 1000 Days. More importantly, to show solidarity with Ukraine; to show that we haven’t forgotten.
We joined others from Oshawa area at the Simcoe Street bridge which spans over Highway 401 in Oshawa, Ontario. Canada’s longest and busiest highway.
Each week since the invasion, local folk have demonstrated at the 401 bridge in support of Ukraine. It’s a perfect spot, with thousands of vehicles passing under. Many honk their horns in support of the Ukrainian and Canadian flags that drivers see as they travel past.
