The Monument That Almost Wasn’t: The Remarkable Story Behind Canada’s Anti-Communist Memorial | Ludwik Klimkowski
Manage episode 484280323 series 2908586
A few months ago, Canada unveiled its national memorial to the millions of victims of communism.
In this episode, Ludwik Klimkowski, chair of the Tribute of Liberty, gives us a tour of the memorial and reveals the 17-year battle to realize it as the group navigated changing political winds.
“This is a memorial to those who still struggle. This is the memorial given to those who still want to escape. This is the memorial to those who are still sitting in prison, whose organs are being harvested,” Klimkowski says.
The memorial was inaugurated last year, although the final elements on the Wall of Remembrance are still under development.
