Holodomor translated from Ukrainian means ‘death by hunger’ as millions were starved and executed for speaking their language and trying to maintain their culture and land and to live in peace.
Government is recognizing Holodomor Memorial Day. Immigration, Population Growth and Skills Minister Gerry Byrne says, “It has been over 90 years since the horrific events of the Holodomor, but the effects are still felt today. Between 1932 and 1933, Ukrainians faced systemic genocide at the hands of the Soviet regime. Holodomor translated from Ukrainian means ‘death by hunger’ as millions were starved and executed for speaking their language and trying to maintain their culture and land and to live in peace. The Holodomor intended to break the Ukrainian people. Yet, they endured, persevered and ultimately won their independence.
