Wynne, Tory pay respects on 103rd anniversary of Armenian genocide


Premier Kathleen Wynne and Mayor John Tory joined hundreds gathered at the Armenian Community Centre of Toronto Sunday afternoon to mark the 103rd anniversary of the Armenian genocide. "We know that many of those who survived the Armenian genocide found refuge here in Ontario." "The Armenian community here in Ontario, along with Armenians around the world have worked hard to ensure what happened to the Armenian people and their culture is both recognized and remembered," she said. "You punched way, way, way above your weight in that work," Wynne said. Like the premier, Tory also noted the centre's contribution to helping Syrian refugees.
