Ukrainian students are facing an increase in anti-Ukrainian hate symbols and harassment on Canadian university campuses, student clubs say.

The club also objected to the hanging of a Russian flag in a dormitory window and detailed one account in which a Carleton student who was wearing a Ukrainian scrunchie on a campus elevator was allegedly told "all Ukrainians should kill themselves."

Carleton did not, however, confirm the number of unique reports of anti-Ukrainian graffiti it has received from students. "As a result of the inaction of the UVSS [University of Victoria Student Society] and the university, anti-Ukrainian sentiment has been allowed to fester on campus," the club wrote.into the matter last Friday.The Russian flag flies at the country's embassy in Ottawa behind a street sign calling for a free Ukraine, installed on posts adjacent to the road as a gesture of solidarity by the City of Ottawa.

Zakydalsky added that although the UCC plans to contact universities about anti-Ukrainian harassment, the issue is not restricted to campuses.

I don’t believe there is is harassment in Canada but I believe there are 130000 homeless from ukraine in Canada and they should leave to countries have same culture with ukraine such as: Kazakhstan, Belarus , Bulgaria, Moldova, Serbia, Macedonia, Albania or Georgia.

130000 Ukrainians in Canada are Asking Canadians in Ukrainian language to give them Food, Money, Accommodation and School but Hey Hello: if they fit in Canada why ONE Palestinian Man from Prague doesn’t ?

The Russian flag is not an “anti-Ukrainian hate symbol” you deranged bigots

Breaking News: Bandanites mad they got called racist racist. Demand Canadas Gov step in. News at 10

Looks like educated kids don’t go along with the government narrative!

They should cover their tattoos better

You mean anti Nazi symbols? That's a good thing, so you at Nuremberg

The president is a fraud

This has to stop & stop now. What is wrong with people. Canadian people are better than that. It's not just Russian propaganda it's also Poilievre & the CPC party that keep rage farming & lying that stir up the hatred in a minority of people.

Disgusting pro-Russian invasion apologists harassing Ukrainians in our Country. Would Canadian universities also allow Holocaust denial clubs on their campuses?

This is NOT the Canadian way: we are a country known for collective strength and tolerance. We must stand for the weak, and not tolerate bullying.

sforys92 If I see anything anti-Ukrainian on my campus I will blow.

Unacceptable. Wake up canadians

Russian people have been lived abroad dozen years but still keeps their hate to Ukrainians. And not only for Ukrainians - russians have slur names to nearly all nations and ethnic groups in the world. For example they called Japan people 'узкоглазий' (narrow-eyed).

Abhorrent behaviour.

Ho ho‼️‼️

Its about time Canada checked their Professors, NAFO have outed at least 2 of them who approve of russian genocide in Ukraine. These people are actually teaching students - wtf

The noisiest 🇷🇺 propagandists here are the far right variant. Their timelines always show their affinity for other authoritarian regimes/figures and a preoccupation with toxic masculinity, and often QAnon & anti-vax nonsense. Their appearance here is not organic or authentic.

Some of those spreading 🇷🇺 disinformation here are claiming to be anti war, so here’s a guide to interpreting their arguments.

Look how the pro Russian clowns in the comments tell on themselves being xenophobic

castletongreene Add this to rife anti-simitism that is allowed to take place on campuses as well. Welcome to Canada.

russians support invasions for centuries Z = Soviet = Swastika, but only Nazis symbols are banned across the world...why?

Trudeaus Nazis are now showing us the chemical weapons they have been supplied with and are about to use.

This is how the disgusting far left, brainwashed students act.

if they just focus on academic i am sure they will be left along

Something seems not normal? yeh? became a news? 😲 .... This is smt most black, brown and asian students have been experiencing from decades.

Because everyone is starting to figure out this “war” is a lie and started by the US government.

UKRAINE is a proxy war by NATO

I don’t think so, we support them, most of Canadians is nice, but there is always few people who is aggressive, it’s normal, never mind.

That is soooooo un-Canadian! Gotta be out west. They've been infected wutn Trump Republifacism

Its all trudeos fault that racist prick

Good! Happy for what happening to them. They can feel how if feels to go through discrimination. In ukraine pOC are treated very badly. Even in d war, ukrainians segregate POC.

Keep pushing the narrative

Aww the poor things are frowned upon for wearing swastikas to the classroom

This makes my blood boil

All thanks to Trudeaus division!

Hate in A CANADIAN university?!!!!!!

Viva Ukraine, viva democracy. Shame on Marxist student racists.

Bullshit

Most likely coming from minority groups? Thats where most of this hatred comes from.

That’s sad

This sickens me.

Nobody like Nazis. Only grandchildren of Nazis that are now deputy PM of Canada feel good about their Nazi homeland CBC and other MSM Canadian news that spread Nazi propaganda

Are we talking about these same Ukrainians ?

Anti Ukrainian hate vs State Sanctioned Russophobia.

Trudeau’s Canada. Stop propping him up and everything gets better

As usual nothing happens in Canada. It’s unfortunate that there are people in support of Russia, against Ukraine or people with just plain stupidity and a desire to get attention (graffiti artist).

Send them to the US. It’s their proxy war!!!

Send those Russians back in Russia

People must learn to leave their grievances at the home country . You move to Canada behave better

Why are Canadian liberals not tearing down the Ukrainian UPA/OUN Nazi statues in Canada like every other statue? Why is their Freeland the Nazi collaborator from the chomiak Nazi family allowed to wave the UPA NAZI banner in Toronto with the mayor? Got an answer for that?

Students should not have to face any kind of hatred no matter what side you stand for,the Globalists and government has caused this hate among ppl

It’s not their fault their leaders are corrupt

Define Ukrainian haters or Anti-Ukrainian. You have to expect some people would not like other people, I think most of the dislike is from the fact that both load of money is going to a foreign country while Canadians are suffering themselves, and Trudeau is doing nothing.

That's sad ,but their leader is responsible for all what's going on

CBC is so cringey with Trudeau propaganda it's become a laughing stock.

They don't like perogies?

CBC NEWS👇

Are people crazy? Ukraine is fighting a war that is stopping Russia from invading other countries and possibly sending the world into WW3. When you go about your daily life because you aren’t fighting in a war like Ukrainians are just say thank you.

So horrible for the students, & such a blemish on the university community. Imagine how embarrassed generous Canadians feel, those who gave the newcomers such warm welcomes! Discrimination touches everyone, confuses teens, & frightens young children. LeadershipMatters

Are you sure it's anti Ukrainian or anti money laundering?

Recall when African students were prevented from boarding trains out of Ukraine when Russia invaded. I am sure many would like not to remember.

Ya I’m sure

Why ?

There is a reason. People not buying this pro-Ukrainian shit on the MSM.

Young men in our universities are the ones that will be called upon to fight if this war escalates. I too would be angry as they are at Ukrainians and Russians both for dragging us into this unneccessary conflict.

something is going on....

crissti mais quelle surprise, c'est pas comme si cte guerre la nous vide les poches

Nazis have always pretended to be persecuted. Ukrainian Nazis are no different.

Canada should stop funding, arming, losing, money laundering NAZI Ukraine. A stain on the memory of every Canadian WWII vet who died fighting the NAZI scourge. The most corrupt country in Europe. While Trudeau's regime bans the guns of legal, law abiding citizens in Canada.

Disgusted. Uni should hold town halls to correct misinformation!!!!!

CBC cant handle the fact Canada has a Ukrainian NAZI problem! And remember, it was the CBC who suggested trucker protests where funded by Russia, a lie! Swastika wavers they accused a Jewish MP of supporting , well lets take a look who the REAL NAZI is....

Say's CBC who hired Justin_Ling to write a fake hit piece on Canadian journalist EvaKBartlett for exposing kiev's war crimes. Aiding & abetting kiev who HAS HER ON ZELENSKYY'S KILL LIST! Including other journalists, artists, musicians and even children!

Says Russiaphobic bigoted CBC who tells us we must feel sorry for AZOV NAZI's mothers who are upset because their swastika tattooed sons are in Donbass jails for war crimes they committed against the civilians of Mariupol.

UNBELIEVABLE!!

Islam is dangerous

quit your propaganda most do not support you

Peace talks are indeed in the best interest of Ukraine.

But painting everyone who is russian under the same brush as putin is OK eh What a joke your publication has become.

More bullshit from the state sponsored ministry of propaganda.

Show us on the doll where your feelings are hurt.

you support land back for azov nazis but when indigenous people want human rights we are getting too much for free....

Stop supporting nazis.

No they aren’t

I can't believe this. As though these Ukrainian students haven't been thru enough. Disgusting.

This is literally 'fake news' meant to stir the pot, no surprise its from CBC though.

No, they are not. Quit race baiting!

Gee, I wonder why?

Seems Canadians hate everyone 🤣🤣🤣

CBC Bunk again …. Just like the Liberals driving hate and divisiveness!! Time to defund them!

CBC trying to push Trudeau agendas!!!!

It beggars belief. Just how vile can people get.

Stark demonstration of what Canadian universities are bringing to our society.Intolerance and inappropriate expressions in conflict resolution.Their record stands for itself. How many statues were ripped down?How many roadways were blocked because of what they teach?

From who? If Russians send them back to Russia. If non Russian then s egg ns thrr et m to the Russian front.

Here we go. More bs

Oh, don't worry Trudy is going to put a anti Ukraine hate crew together. And they will be the worst.

The anti-Ukrainian symbol in question: ☮️

Canada funds ongoing genocide in Palestine

Stand by for “i sTaNd wItH uKrAiNE” tweets even though they’ve never been in a fight or would be able to serve in a combat theatre or even donate to help refugees…

I call BS

Nothing to see here.

Sad.

lolz, liberal propaganda. Did Farber or one of his CAHN minions give insight on this alleged ‘hate’

sucks to be a nazi

This whole thing needs to stop..stop the war, stop send money and negotiate

Doubtful

If you question the fact that organizers of this war (Blinken, Victoria Nuland, Alexander Vindman and Zelenskiy) are not Christians, but almost all the men who have died so far Christians, does this equate to anti-Ukrainian hate symbols and harassment

Direct quote from this article: 'The Carleton Ukrainian club also denounced a panel discussion held on the university's campus last week titled, The War in Ukraine: What is the Path to Peace?'

What in the actual hell? Their country is attacked and they now have to deal with this crap?

What is an “anti-Ukrainian hate symbol”? Honest question.

' ...hate graffiti, an allegation of verbal harassment and an on-campus panel discussion which the club views as pro-Russian.' Oh the horror, the horror, meanwhile their corrupt NATO/Nazi country is shelling civilians while losing our proxy war.

Please forgive me if I'm wrong, but sometimes it's not about hate or racism for a particular group but it's the circumstance leading to the situation, canadian students struggle to get financial support but Ukrainians get it easy, the gov't is dishing out tons of cash to ukraine

What are 'anti-ukrainian symbols'?

That's sad that there is a couple bad apples doing that. The majority of canada welcomes you with open arms including me.

Students are becoming smarter about the Ukrainian corruption led by the tyrant Zelensky. ZelenskyWarCriminal

We really need to gut universities of the DIE grifters

I can see why the students are upset. Tuition and rent are going up for students while our government is funding the Ukraine.

Are Canadians really THAT hateful? I thought Canada was built on diversity. Watching the mainstream media and government, you'd think this is a troubled country where everyone hates everyone.

Hey Carleton_U this is typical. But there has been a problem with our expensive Canadian Universities for a long time now. They are no longer helping Canada create wealth. Woke is broke and taxpayers deserve a better ROI for our tax dollars. Time for you to fix the problem.

russian propagandists residing in Canada must ALL be deported, so they could feel the love of their 'dear leader' much deeper

🥱

Disgusting. We need yo attack that right now

Maybe the students are upset that our government is funneling our money into their country with no accountability to where that money goes or how much they've lost. One report I've read they lost 70 billion in American donations. No idea where it went

Ukraine officials are buying up large properties in Switzerland driving around in sports cars. hmmm wonder with whose money? Can we audit our money trail?

Just because Canadians scratch out swastikas doesn’t mean they hate Ukrainians, we are just two different cultures — in Canada, for instance, the swastika and other Nazi symbols are known as hateful, in Ukraine they’re part of the national identity

Please STOP donating money and equipment to Ukraine - Canada supplied enough. Both U.S. and Canada should Stop CALL for PEACE - not war We do not want our kids drafted for War If Trudeau cannot handle PEACE talks then he should resign and let Pierre take over.
