Send us a textWhy does the Western narrative on Ukraine feel so one-sided? In this episode of the Open Minds Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Ivan Katchanovski, a Ukrainian-Canadian political scientist whose peer-reviewed research sheds a sobering light on Ukraine's internal divisions, the roots of war, and the media's oversimplified story. We talk about Crimea, Donbas, NATO and the infamous Maidan sniper massacre—an event that reshaped Ukraine and global geopolitics. Dr. Katchanovski's insights challenge widely held beliefs and force us to ask: what do we really know about this war?Inside GenevaInside Geneva is a podcast about global politics, humanitarian issues, & international aidListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showVisit my NEW Website! https://www.christopherbalkaran.comCheck out my Instagram/Tik Tok for daily posts: Instagram @openmindspodTiktok @openmindspodcast

Perhaps the most perverse Russian invasion narrative, is that Ukraine is not old, and is not distinct from Russia in any case. But Ukraine is not just a footnote to Russian imperial history. As a nation, it is old, different, and diverse. Just as it went unrecognised by Russia, it has not been understood or recognised by the outside world either, for a variety of reasons. 100 years ago, few noticed its disappearance as an independent state; but that has now changed. Putin's tyranny and violence have accelerated the evolution of Ukrainian identity and increased the pressure for social, political, and economic change. ---------- Lubomyr Luciuk is a Canadian academic and author of books and articles in the field of political geography and Ukrainian history.

Experimental, pilot episode. We would like to revive the music, not a nostalgic approach. Двомовна передача, як сама українська музика Прерій. In Dutch Hygge means creating a warm atmosphere and enjoying the good things in life with good people. But it's more about light and the cozy objects around you. Ukrainian hygge is different. Dutch people don't like big companies, Ukrainians do. It's really about people gathering together, cooking, eating, and listening to the music . Пару років тому ми придбали програвач вінілових платівок. Почали ритися в комісійних магазинах відшуковуючи красиві обкладники і помічали як на душі теплішає від теплого вінілового звуку. Хто памятає, але для запису звуку раніше використовувалися лампові прилади. Хтось скаже "у магічний спосіб", але як електронщик за освітою я скажу: у цілком практичний спосіб звук проходив через тепле світло електронних ламп і тепло тих електронних ламп записувалося на вінілових платівках. В 1930-70хх роках, до появи сучасних транзисторів на диски було записано багато теплої, збагаченої червоним теплом електронних ламп світлом музики. Нам як шахтарям зараз треба лише спуститися в ті пласти щоб підняти на гору енергію того звуку. У свій спосіб ми будемо робити Хьюгe, лише не спостерігати тепле світло, а слухати його з вінілових платівок. Тим більше що нам повезло відрити особливе родовище, особливий енергетичний пласт тепла: українську вінілову музику Прерій 1950-70хх років. In the 50th-70th Ukrainian Canadian music started developing very fast. In full isolation from the soviet Ukraine there were bands and singers popping up like mushrooms after the rain and creating something very unique. It was not a just very traditional Ukrainian music, but rather Ukrainian traditional music that adopted local culture, style, ambience. Polkas, Ukrainian country, kolomyjkas became instantly popular at the countless Zabavas, Makankas and weddings . But that wasn't enough , people wanted to listen at home, with friends and families. And that's how the vinyls apear. One of the first and most popular Winnipeg's recording studio devoted almost exclusively to Ukrainian-Canadian music, would be 62 years this year . Particularly because of these studios we will be able to share this very special sound with you and maybe recreate here on the West Coast a little bit of the warmth, coziness, togetherness of the Canadian Ukrainian prairies in the mid of the 20th century. Прерії, зокрема велика холодна Манітоба в 1950-70 хх роках пережили музичний бум. Українці, які історично славилися як народ пісенної традиції. Затиснуті холодом, ізольовані не лише від "старого краю" залізним кордоном холодної війни, але й ізольовані від решти цивілізації на засніжених хуторах створили свій унікальний звук. Створили ажіотажний попит на свої зірки, музичну індустрію. Весь цей феномен проіснував лише 10-15 років і за тисячі кілометрів від дощового Ванкувера, де ми записуємо цей подкаст. Але тепла записаного на тих дисках буде досить на цілу серію подкастів які ми назвали Вінілові Юкіз. We are pretty sure there will be many of our episodes dedicated to the different labels, singers and even styles. But today we start with a few highlights.. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ukrainian-podcast/message
As we approach the somber 2nd anniversary of the war in Ukraine, we speak with Petro Schturyn, president of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress - Toronto Branch about a planned rally in Toronto later this month.
#200 - 1/21/2024 HOST = Ida Abdalkhani Katherine Vellinga, Zirkova Vodka CEO & Co-founder “The thing that terrifies you the most is where all the gold is — and my experience is when you bust through, there's really incredible things on the other side.” Katherine Vellinga is the Co-founder and CEO of Zirkova, an award-winning ultra-premium vodka brand. She is a Ukrainian Canadian who first pursued a career with P&G in Product Supply but after the fall of the Soviet Union, she left P&G and moved to a newly independent Ukraine. This is where Katherine developed her love for the origins and birthplace of vodka and was compelled to share this remarkable story of women Master Distillers, classical methods, and extraordinary spirits. Zirkova is now the top-selling vodka produced in Ukraine that is sold in Canada. More than just a brand, Katherine's vision for Zirkova is a reflection of her own beliefs, of standing for the freedom to be and celebrate who you are, to toast and acknowledge others, and to create special moments that bring people together, so that everyone feels like they are part of one table. You'll enjoy this candid conversation about creating moments that unite, not allowing fear to guide our decisions and creating a life by design vs default.

While current global attention is focused on the conflict in Gaza, a Ukrainian-Canadian in Bradford is reminding everyone of the war unfolding in her home country through a poignant photo exhibit. A recent independent panel's assessment has exposed chronic nursing shortage and alleged poor patient care at a unit in Kingston Health Sciences Centre. We heard from the Ontario Nurses' Association. Now, the health sciences center responds. The festive season is not always so cheerful for people who feel shy, lonely or isolated. A friendly conversation over coffee can help with that. We hear about a program that invite people to find friendly company at their local coffee shop.
For nearly a decade, Ukrainian-Canadian singer Marcihka Marczyk has been supporting her home country by using her voice. But recently, Marczyk stepped up her support and joined the fight as a combat medic. She tells Galloway what she saw during a tour in Ukraine.
Instead of our regular “Couple of the Quarter” episode, we are bringing to you a “Duo of the Quarter.” On Sat, Oct 21 at 7am local time, the individual world championships of backyard ultra running commenced in Bell Buckle, Tennessee. The format sees racers run a 4.17-mile loop, called a “yard” in backyard ultrarunning, within a one-hour time limit, after which all finishers within the allotted time are tied for first place, and must present on the start line on the hour to go again. This continues until there is only one runner left standing, who must complete a solo yard to be awarded the win. After completing 107 yards & hours and covering 446 miles/718km, Ukrainian-Canadian and past guest Ihor Verys was the last person to DNF, assisting Harvey Lewis to a world record win. Racers were allowed only one person to crew and support them for the duration of the race, and he entrusted 52 year old friend and fellow ultrarunner Marina Striker with that task. To say she delivered is an understatement, and during this conversation you will hear how instrumental Marina's experience and support was in Ihor's success. You will also be treated with a few stories of things Ihor does not remember during the 5 days of running and you will get a glimpse into the militaristic discipline and mindset required by both crew and runner to keep moving for 107 hours straight. Dubbed “The Dream Team” on social media, these two athletes reveal what an unlimited mindset and unwavering belief can achieve.Connect with Ihor & Marina:Ihor's Instagram: @ihorverysMarina's Instagram: @marinas_trailrunning_questsConnect with Carolyn & Kim:Email us with guest ideas: inspiredsolescast@gmail.comInspired Soles InstagramKim's InstagramKim's FacebookCarolyn's InstagramCarolyn's FacebookCarolyn's websiteWe love hearing from you!

It was perhaps the ultimate example of the old adage that foreign policy in Canada is 100 per cent for domestic consumption Government House Leader Karina Gould sought (and did not receive) unanimous consent to expunge the entire Hunka episode from the official history “Get caught lionizing someone who fought for Hitler … and channel Stalin in response” Many seemed baffled by Gould's proposal to wipe the record clean, but it seems pretty obvious to me what the Liberals had in mind: They're so hopelessly shipwrecked up their own backsides that they actually thought they might productively accuse the Conservatives of being pro-Nazi for not agreeing to expunge the record. Or at least, they thought that was worth a try, at the cost of Gould's reputation Poland's education minister says he's 'taken steps' to extradite Yaroslav Hunka https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/yaroslav-hunka-poland-minister-extradite-1.6978266 Poland's education minister says he has "taken steps" to effect the extradition to Poland of Yaroslav Hunka, a 98-year-old Ukrainian Canadian, after it emerged that the veteran served in the Nazi SS Galizien formation during the Second World War. Robert Currie, a law professor at Dalhousie University and an expert in extradition law, told CBC News Canada does not have a formal extradition agreement with Poland. "That doesn't prevent extradition. It just makes it a matter of more paperwork between the two governments," he said.Currie said Canada and Poland can agree to extradition in Hunka's case. Before that transfer could happen, he added, Poland would have to present evidence that Hunka committed a crime that Canada would recognize — he could not be extradited on the basis of his membership in the Nazi SS Galizien formation."We do not have crimes of association other than organized crime type-offences which are very, very specialized," he said. Other challenges to extradition in Hunka's case, Currie said, include his advanced age and the question of whether he is fit to stand trial. Hunka could also challenge any extradition in court, a process that could take years. The Netherlands refused an extradition request from Poland in 2020, citing concerns that judges in that country were not sufficiently independent of the Polish government. "When you have the government interfering with the courts, that gives the appearance of the potential for a fair trial being endangered, and that is an argument that a person can make [to avoid extradition]," Currie said. B.C. Conservative leader under fire for likening teaching of sexuality, gender to residential schools https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/john-rustad-sept-30-tweet-1.6984159 John Rustad, MLA for Nechako Lakes, acknowledged the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in a Sept. 30 post on X, formerly known as Twitter."Today we remember what happens when the Canadian government thinks it's better at raising children than parents," read Rustad's post on Saturday, which was also shared on his party's official Facebook page."I will always stand with parents." My tweet was not about the children and the impact that had on on the Indigenous people," said Rustad, a former minister of Aboriginal affairs and reconciliation with the B.C. Liberals, the party now known as B.C. United. "What happened to Indigenous people is obviously a very stark reminder of what happens when government does decide to interfere with the raising of children. And it's a very tragic."But in no way was I trying to compare students today to what students went through, but rather that what parents went through, and parents having their rights taken away, is not right at any level." Who started calling residential school burial sites mass graves? https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/first-nations-graves In the spring of 2021, a series of ground-penetrating radar surveys near the sites of former Indian Residential Schools uncovered anomalies that appeared to be consistent with children's graves. In the nationwide protests that followed, more than 60 Canadian churches were vandalized or destroyed, and statues were pulled down in virtually every major city. The surveys would help spawn a new holiday, Truth and Reconciliation Day, prompt an official visit by Pope Francis and result in Canadian flags being kept at half-mast for a record-breaking five consecutive months. And then, just last month, an excavation at the Pine Creek Residential School in Manitoba determined that 14 “anomalies” suspected to be children's graves were actually nothing. To date, of the hundreds of suspected graves identified starting in 2021, Pine Creek is the only one that has been followed up with an archeological dig. The preliminary claims of First Nations performing the surveys did not state that these were “mass graves,” that they were deliberately concealed or that they were the result of homicide. At least in the beginning, the claims of “mass graves” or mass murder would stem mostly from foreign news outlets. When the Cowessess First Nation in Saskatchewan announced a survey showing 751 unmarked graves near the site of the former Marieval Indian Residential School, Chief Cadmus Delorme was careful to say they were not a mass grave. Rather, these were plots within a larger Catholic cemetery whose headstones Delorme said had been removed by Catholic authorities. “This is not a mass grave site. These are unmarked graves,” he said. Trudeau 'trying to crush free speech' with new podcast rules: Musk https://nationalpost.com/news/national/trudeau-trying-to-crush-free-speech-with-new-podcast-rules-musk-says/wcm/03dd1a06-998b-44c2-b52d-90f065c14d53 “Trudeau is trying to crush free speech in Canada,” the owner of X posted on his social-media site in a reply to journalist Glenn Greenwald. “Shameful.” Greenwald, the co-founder of The Intercept, said in his post to X that Canada is now “armed with one of the world's most repressive online censorship schemes.” The two were responding to changes announced on Friday by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunication Commission, which plans to “modernize Canada's broadcasting framework and ensure online streaming services make meaningful contributions to Canadian and Indigenous content.” The two were responding to changes announced on Friday by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunication Commission, which plans to “modernize Canada's broadcasting framework and ensure online streaming services make meaningful contributions to Canadian and Indigenous content.” Among the changes are requiring certain streaming services to provide information about their activities and setting conditions for streaming services to operate in Canada, including providing details about their content and subscribership. The second change is already in effect, the CRTC said on its website, while companies that need to provide information about their activities must do so by Nov. 28. Trudeau cuts defence spending to fund socialist pet projects https://nationalpost.com/opinion/trudeau-cuts-defence-spending-to-fund-socialist-pet-projects In July, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz met with their NATO allies in Vilnius, Lithuania, where they pledged their “enduring commitment to invest at least two per cent of our gross domestic product (GDP) annually on defence,” noting that, “in many cases, expenditure beyond two per cent of GDP will be needed in order to remedy existing shortfalls and meet the requirements across all domains arising from a more contested security order.” A few months before reaffirming his commitment to it at the summit, Trudeau reportedly told NATO members behind closed doors that Canada would never spend two per cent of GDP on defence. And indeed, late last week, we learned that his Liberal government is looking to cut $1 billion from the annual defence budget, which would further reduce the measly 1.3 per cent of GDP this country spent on defence last year. Speaking in front of a parliamentary committee on Thursday, Defence Minister Bill Blair said that, “The fiscal environment in Canada right now requires that when we are spending Canadian taxpayers dollars … we do it carefully and thoughtfully.” And he's absolutely right. But it seems a little rich from a government that can't seem to go a week without announcing millions in funding for high-speed internet in some remote part of the country or to virtue-signal for the woke cause du jour, and wastes tens of billions on its fruitless quest to forcibly decarbonize the economy. Having a military that's capable of defending your country's sovereignty may not seem to be “creating public value for Canadians,” as Blair suggested government expenditures should be, and may not be a vote-getter like dental or child care, two areas Treasury Board President Anita Anand insinuated the government needs to find savings in order to fund. Advocates say Ontario minimum wage increase to $16.55 an hour still not a living wage https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/advocates-say-ontario-minimum-wage-increase-to-16-55-an-hour-still-not-a-living-wage Ontario's minimum wage rises today to $16.55 an hour. The increase is tied to inflation, and is up 6.8 per cent from the previous rate of $15.50 an hour. Labour advocates and opposition critics have said Ontario should introduce a $20 minimum wage The Ontario Living Wage Network says a living wage in the Greater Toronto Area is around $23 an hour.

Mateusz Świetlicki's book Next-Generation Memory and Ukrainian Canadian Children's Historical Fiction: The Seeds of Memory (Routledge, 2023) is the first book monograph devoted to Anglophone Ukrainian Canadian children's historical fiction published between 1991 and 2021. It consists of five chapters offering cross-sectional and interdisciplinary readings of 41 books - novels, novellas, picturebooks, short stories, and a graphic novel. The first three chapters focus on texts about the complex process of becoming Ukrainian Canadian, showcasing the experiences of the first two waves of Ukrainian immigration to Canada, including encounters with Indigenous Peoples and the First World War Internment. The last two chapters are devoted to the significance of the cultural memory of the Holodomor, the Great Famine of 1932-1933, and the Second World War for Ukrainian Canadians. All the chapters demonstrate the entanglements of Ukrainian and Canadian history and point to the role Anglophone children's literature can play in preventing the symbolical seeds of memory from withering. This volume argues that reading, imagining, and reimagining history can lead to the formation of beyond-textual next-generation memory. Such memory created through reading is multidimensional as it involves the interpretation of both the present and the past by an individual whose reality has been directly or indirectly shaped by the past over which they have no influence. Next-generation memory is of anticipatory character, which means that authors of historical fiction anticipate the readers - both present-day and future - not to have direct links to any witnesses of the events they discuss and to have little knowledge of the transcultural character of the Ukrainian Canadian diaspora.

Actor Markian Tarasiuk has been busy: making rom-coms and thrillers; fielding acting nominations from leading industry organizations; working with Ukrainian Canadian organizations to preserve and promote Ukrainian culture during this war. In recent years, Markian has made a name for himself as a romantic lead in holiday rom-coms like Welcome to Valentine, A Homecoming for the Holidays, Wedding Cake Dreams, Christmas at the Golden Dragon, Our Italian Christmas Memories, the delightfully named Why Can't My Life Be A Rom-Com?, and The Christmas Jars (for which he was nominated for a 2021 Canadian Screen Award for Best Lead Performance in a TV Movie). Late last year, he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 2022 UBCP/ACTRA Awards for the thriller There's Someone Inside Your House; the award ultimately went to Hollywood icon Eric McCormack of Will & Grace fame. In this fun and freewheeling conversation with Sabrina Rani Furminger, Markian talks rom-coms (and his fans, the Hallmarkians), nominations, activism, and navigating the industry as a Ukrainian Canadian during this devastating time. Says Markian: “I will not let Russia take away our Ukrainian joy.” Episode Sponsors: UBCP/ACTRA

Welcome to Gorilla Radio, recorded February 11th, 2023. This past week, Canadian Forces redeployed a CP-140 Aurora surveillance plane from its dedicated mission assisting U.S.-led drugs smuggling interdiction efforts in the Caribbean to spend two days flying reconnaissance over Haiti. Foreign Affairs Minister, Melanie Joly characterized the escalation of Canada's military involvement in the country as a "demonstration of Canada's commitment to Haiti". Last month, Canada demonstrated that commitment in the form of an unspecified number and type of armored vehicles being sold to a government that has already called for foreign military intervention to quell wide-spread public discontent with its corrupt and entirely unelected leadership. Yves Engler is an independent, Montreal-based journalist and author. He's written twelve books on Canadian foreign policy, including ‘Canada in Haiti: Waging War on the Poor Majority', co-authored with Anthony Fenton. His recent article, ‘Ottawa's support for repressive Haitian police grows as democracy fades' appears at his website, YvesEngler.com, and puts to the lie - again - Canada's "concern for the people" of that benighted island. Yves Engler in the first half. And; the University of Victoria's Student Union has become another front in the Ukraine/Russia war. Last month, UVic's Ukrainiain Students' Society alleged harassment of its members and intimidation in the form of "hate crime" graffiti scrawled on one of its posters. They've also made allegations of "ongoing hate and harassment demonstrated by the YCL [Young Communist League]..." UVic's USS is, with similar student societies on campuses across the country, associated with the politically influential Ukrainian Canadian Congress. Tyan Cherepuschak is an undergraduate student at the University of Victoria, and is a Ukrainian-Canadian who until recently served as Vice-President to the UVic chapter of the Ukrainian Canadian Students Union (SUSK). And; Tyson Strandlund is a member of both the UVic chapter of the Young Communist League and the Vancouver Island Peace Council, a local chapter of the Canadian Peace Congress. He too is a Canadian of Ukrainian descent, who has studied in and visited Ukraine both before and after the 2014 Maidan coup. Tyan Cherepuschak & Tyson Strandlund on bringing the Ukraine conflict to Canadian campuses in the second half. But first, Yves Engler and Canada's caring military gestures to Haiti.

And, like many Useful Idiot guests, no one will report on his story. This week, Katchanovski shares his research on the Maidan Massacre, a mass killing of Ukrainians protesting the Yanukovich government in February 2014. The US and opposition leaders blamed Yanukovich, triggered a coup and the ensuing civil war that radically escalated with Russia's invasion eight years later. But when Professor Katchanovski dug into video, witness testimony, and other evidence which reveals who really committed the massacre — including footage that CNN tried to bury — he was ignored by mainstream media for attempted disruption of the approved narrative. But now he's joining the Useful Idiots to tell us what really happened: the massacre, he argues, was carried out by pro-Maidan snipers. Watch the full interview with Professor Katchanovski for his take on who committed the massacre, how the US media is covering it up, and that weird interview between David Letterman and Volodymyr Zelenskyy: “We did a survey,” Zelenskyy told Letterman. “It showed that 98% of our country's population today would rather stay without electricity and water as long as they are free from Russia.” Ivan responds to that seemingly impossible statistic. Plus, catch this week's Thursday Throwdown on how our “free press” is really just US-state media. It's all this, and more, on this week's episode of Useful Idiots. Check it out.
