The wave of support among Czech Canadians has been impressive
We will never forget that Canada stood by us when we faced the Nazi and Soviet occupations. During the Second World War, Canada, among other things, supported the Czechoslovak government in exile, trained our RAF pilots and even helped us succeed in one of the most important acts of Nazi resistance on occupied territories during the war — the assassination of a principle architect of the Holocaust, Reinhard Heydrich.
The wave of support among Czech Canadians, from descendants of the first Czech cowboys in the Prairies to those who have arrived recently, has impressed me as well. Some of the efforts have been quite creative. The New Moon tattoo studio in Ottawa offered special motifs of a Molotov cocktail or a tank pulled by a tractor for a donation of $100 for Ukraine. This is how Milena Fusco wanted to commemorate the fate of her mother, who fled Czechoslovakia in 1968.
