Default Calgary Council proclaims city-wide day of Holocaust remembrance

Council proclaims city-wide day of Holocaust remembrance

Nov 18, 2019

City council unanimously proclaimed Jan. 27 as Calgary’s annual city-wide International Holocaust Remembrance Day at a city hall meeting Monday where young Jewish students and a handful of Holocaust survivors were in attendance.

“I wanted to see this happen. It’s very important for us as survivors — I’m a child survivor — to see recognition of a day,” said Terry Groner, who was born in 1936 and attended Monday’s meeting at city hall. “I was not in a concentration camp but I was hidden during the war as a Jewish child.”
