On the morning of June 26, Cuba's Ambassador to Canada, Rodrigo Malmierca Díaz, welcomed Italian-Canadian musician Aldo Mazza to the Cuban Embassy in Ottawa. Mazza has maintained a close, enduring relationship with Cuba for more than 20 years, earning official recognition for his work in preserving, teaching, and promoting the country's musical rhythms and cultural heritage.

The Consul General of Cuba in Montreal, Yamari Pérez Viera, paid a working visit to Quebec, where she met with the highest authorities of the Canadian province. The Cuban diplomat greeted Premier Christine Fréchette on the occasion of Quebec’s National Day.

Toronto, June 2, 2026. The Faculty of Natural Sciences at York University hosted the conference “Solidarity Without Borders,” an event dedicated to Cuba and, in particular, to the achievements of its National Health System. The activity brought together professors, students, members of the Cuban community residing in Toronto, and representatives from various sectors of Canadian society.

Members of the Quebec-Cuba Solidarity Roundtable and Cuban residents in Montreal called this Sunday for the lifting of the economic, financial, and commercial blockade imposed by the United States more than six decades ago.

The demonstrators gathered peacefully, as they do on the last Sunday of every month, in front of the U.S. Consulate in Montreal, carrying Cuban flags and signs expressing support for the Caribbean nation.

They also demanded an end to Washington’s escalating aggression and forcefully declared: “No to war against Cuba!”
