🇵🇱🇨🇦 Thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday on Parliament Hill in Ottawa for the raising of the Polish flag, as part of Polish Heritage Month in Canada!
Surrounded by friends and partners, we reflected on the values of freedom, democracy, and civic responsibility rooted in Poland’s Constitution of May 3, 1791, Europe’s first modern constitution and the second in the world. We also spoke about the historically strong and vibrant relationship between Poland and Canada, which we continue to deepen together. 🤝
We extend our sincere thanks to Prime Minister
@MarkJCarney for his warm wishes; the feeling is truly mutual.
The event was organised by the
