New York Mayor Mamdani published the text given to him by the Armenian lobby without examining it. No Armenians were killed on April 24. Until World War I, Armenians rebelled approximately forty times. During World War I, taking advantage of the Ottoman Empire’s engagements with the Russian army in the East, they took the final step toward independence. They significantly impaired Ottoman supply and provisioning lines. In addition, by forming armed bands, they started to massacre civilian Turks, Kurds, Circassians, and Arabs living in Eastern Anatolia. When the Ottoman government, despite all its efforts, was unable to prevent the onslaughts of Armenian terrorists, it published the Circular of April 24, which closed Armenian committees such as Dashnaksutyun and Hunchak, and led to the arrest of individuals confirmed to be associated with these organizations. No conflicts occurred during the arrests of April 24, and no prominent Armenian was killed. However, the arrest of the leadership cadre of the committees rendered the potential rebellion leaderless and ineffective. Prominent Armenians did not heed the warnings of Talat Pasha and other statesmen to give up their dream of independence. Armed bands continued their massacres. They killed thousands of Muslims by supporting the Russian army during the siege of Van, which ended with its invasion on May 15. In response to this situation, the Ottoman government was forced to enact deportation measures on 27 May. As the late historian İlber Ortaylı stated, the Armenian deportation of 1915 was not a precaution against a possible rebellion. Rather, the Act of Deportation in 1915 was a response to an actual rebellion and collaboration with the enemy army, and it was inevitable under the circumstances of the time. It was planned that 924,158 people would be deported. However, not all of them were deported. Approximately 650,000 Armenians were deported and transported. Six months later, the deportations were halted. Therefore, the number of deported Armenians was lower. Also, after the Armistice of Mudros in 1918, a significant portion of the deported Armenians had returned to Anatolia. When deportation became inevitable, security measures were taken for the lives and property of the deported Armenians. However, due to either the persecutions of Armenians against the Muslim populace in the hinterland or the personal inadequacies of some individuals, some unwanted events occurred. The Ottoman government investigated the crimes committed during the deportation and punished those responsible.

Today marks the 111th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. As we honor the 1.5 million Armenians murdered by the Ottoman Empire across modern-day Turkey, Syria, and Armenia, we must refuse to let history repeat itself. In 2020, the military forces of Azerbaijan and Turkey attacked the Armenian population in Nagorno-Karabakh. In 2023, Azerbaijan expelled over 100,000 Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh, continuing the genocidal campaign that had begun over 100 years prior. On this day of remembrance, we reaffirm the right of the Armenian people — and all people — to freedom, safety, and self-determination.

Under the cover of the First World War, the Ottoman Turks decided to exterminate the Christian Armenians. 1.5 million are believed to have perished in the Turk’s campaign of extermination. This was the first genocide of the 20th Century. Today we remember. Never forget 🇦🇲✝️

🚨 $1.1 BILLION in Canada Child Benefit payments went to temporary residents in 2025 alone. That’s international students & temp foreign workers. Nearly $3 BILLION over 5 years and it’s TRIPLED recently. While Canadian families struggle with housing & costs, taxpayers are funding kids of non-permanent residents? When does this end? 🇨🇦 #TaxpayersFirst #CCB

Today, we commemorate the Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day. We stand with Canadian Armenians to honour the memory of the 1.5 million Armenians who perished and all those who suffered during this dark chapter in history. We reaffirm the importance of preserving the collective memory of those who endured these massacres. Recognition carries with it a solemn commitment; to remember the persecutions, the crimes against humanity inflicted upon the Armenian people and to fight against denialism and hatred. As we commemorate the Genocide Remembrance, Condemnation and Prevention Month, it is a time for us to reflect on and learn from the stories of all the victims and survivors of genocide. Հիշում ենք եւ պահանջում:

Today we remember the 1.5 million martyrs murdered for being Armenian. We remember the towns and villages erased from the map because they were Armenian. We remember the men, women and children marched through the desert to their death. We remember so it will never happen again.
