Prince Edward Island recognises the Holodomor as an act of genocide against Ukrainians

The Atlantic Canadian province of Prince Edward Island recognised the Holodomor as an act of genocide against Ukrainians, becoming the last province of all ten that did so.

“Prince Edward Island joins other provinces in recognizing the Ukrainian famine as an act of genocide,” the text of the bill reads.

In addition to the recognition of the genocide itself, the draft law also designates the fourth Saturday of November as the Day of Remembrance of the Ukrainian Famine and Genocide at the provincial level.
