    Long-Distance Nationalism: Ukrainian Monuments and Historical Memory in Multicultural Canada

    CHAPTER 4 Long-Distance Nationalism: Ukrainian Monuments and Historical Memory in Multicultural Canada Per A. Rudling INTRODUCTION In October 2017, a political controversy erupted, as the Russian embassy in Ottawa posted a number of images on its twitter account, purporting to depict ‘Nazi memorials’ in Canada. Three images of memorials to Waffen-SS veterans, a prominent Nazi collaborator, and ultranationalist insurgents were accompanied by the comment ‘There are monuments to Nazi collaborators in Canada and nobody is doing anything about it’. The message was followed by the hash tags ‘#NeverForget #Holocaust #WorldWar2’ (‘Russia in Canada’ 2017) (Fig. 4.1). Three years earlier, Russia had invaded Ukraine and annexed parts of its territory, an action not seen in Europe since World War II. The invasion led to a sharp dete- rioration of Russia’s relations to the West, including Canada, the govern- ments of which strongly and publicly denounced the aggression. The diplomatic row of 2017 should be seen in the context of this conflict. P. A. Rudling (*) Lund University, Lund, Sweden e-mail: [email protected] © The Author(s) 2020 95 S.

Labunka Special to The Ukrainian Weekly KYIV – As Ukraine’s capital witnessed the first snowfall of the season on a gray and cold day, thousands of citizens from all corners of the country and Ukrainians as well as non-Ukrainians from as far as Australia and North America arrived in Kyiv on Saturday, November 22, to bow their heads and pay tribute to the memory of the millions of victims who perished in the Holodomor of 1932-1933. Official ceremonies commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Stalin- engineered Holodomor commenced early in the morning as President Viktor Yushchenko and First Lady Kateryna Yushchenko placed flowers at the Holodomor Memorial on St. Michael’s Square. The memorial was erected in 1993, but only since Mr. Yushchenko’s presidency has the solemn memorial come to serve as a popular pilgrimage site to lay flowers and light candles in memo- ry of the Famine-Genocide victims.
