Hundreds of Canadian voice solidarity with Ukraine amid ongoing war

On February 23, hundreds of people gathered at Nathan Phillips Square in Toronto to show their support for Ukraine, marking three years since Russia invaded the country. Ukraine has now entered its fourth year of full-scale war with Russia and is uncertain about how much it can rely on the United States. Protesters in Toronto urged former President Donald Trump to "be on the right side of history" by involving all parties in peace talks. Central to the current situation is a potential deal that could allow the U.S. access to Ukraine`s mineral resources. However, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy rejected an early version of the deal earlier this month, saying it didn`t serve Ukraine’s interests.... [Read More]

Rahul Gandhi critiques lack of real power for elected representatives

Rahul Gandhi critiques lack of real power for elected representatives

Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, spoke about how various groups, like Dalits, are given representation in India’s power structure but are not truly included in decision-making.
