Over one thousand people gathered in Toronto on Monday to mark 6 years since the massacre of tens of thousands of Tamils in the final phases of the armed conflict.

Marking 'Tamil Genocide Day' in Albert Campbell Square, Canadian Tamils gathered and laid flowers in remembrance of those killed.
Newly elected Leader of the Conservative Party Ontario, Patrick Brown, spoke at the event, telling the audience that justice for those massacred should be an issue for politicians across the political spectrum. “Whether NDP, Liberal or Conservative, it is a Canadian value to stand up for justice,” said Mr Brown.
