Canada-Armenia and Canada-Artsakh Parliamentary Friendship Groups and members
of the Senate of Canada from all political parties.

“This social media campaign will help our community members and
voters learn more about their elected representatives and the great work that
they are doing for Canadians coast-to-coast” said Hrag Tarakdjian and Shahen
Mirakian, co-presidents of the ANCC.

The campaign will run until the end of July.
