In October 1917, the Bolshevik Revolution gave birth to the deadliest ideology in human history – Communism. In less than 100 years, Communism has claimed more than 100 million lives. This year, Tribute to Liberty in accordance with the Toronto and Etobicoke/Mississauga Chapters of the League of Ukrainian Canadians (LUC), League of Ukrainian Canadian Women (LUCW) Ukrainian Youth Association of Canada (CYM), Society of Veterans of UPA are hosting a Benefit Luncheon with distinguished Members of Parliament, to honour the victims of communism.
