Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney and Armenian Canadians

Armenian Canadians: Kenney dramatically affirmed that controversial position one vehemently opposed by Turkey, Canada ally to hundreds of Armenian Canadians gathered on the east section of the Hill lawn, according to Metro News. Kenney remarks comprised an explicit expression of support for the Armenians on the eve of a weekend featuring separate First World War 100th anniversary commemorations in Armenia and Turkey and Defence and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney told Armenian Canadians gathered Friday on Parliament Hill that the memory of their homeland genocide will never be forgotten in this country. As he did so, hundreds of Turkish Canadian protesters were gathered just metres away on the lawn west side, separated from their Armenian rivals by temporary steel barricades and a few metres of broad Parliament walkway.
