A crowd of Torontonians estimated to number as many as 10,000 rallied for the freedom of Ukraine Sunday outside the Russian consulate-general at 60 St. Clair Ave West. The #StandWithUkraine rally was organized by the Toronto branch of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress, and began at 2 p.m. Demonstrators held the Ukrainian flag and signs condemning Russian President Vladimir Putin’s actions. In a tweet Sunday afternoon, Toronto police said St. Clair Avenue from Yonge Street to Avoca Avenue was closed due to a “large crowd” blocking traffic in the area. Twitter
