Hundreds of Canadians from diverse backgrounds gathered for a candlelight vigil and rally on a freezing night in Toronto to condemn the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22 that claimed the lives of 26 innocent people.
Organised by Hindu Forum Canada , COHNA, and several other Hindu groups, the event on Saturday saw more than 500 Hindus, Jews, Baloch, Iranians, and other Canadians march through the city's streets. Participants chanted slogans like "Pakistan Murdabad" and called on the Canadian government to officially designate Pakistan as a terrorist state.
The solemn vigil included candles, prayers, and speeches from community leaders, who urged for immediate and decisive action against terrorism. The gathering not only denounced the violence in Kashmir but also raised concerns about the growing threat of Islamist-Jihadi extremism .
Standing shoulder to shoulder, they sent a strong message of unity, honouring the victims of the Pahalgam attack and vowing to confront terrorism together.
