Pravda (Winnipeg) («Правда»; Truth). A farmer-worker newspaper in Canada. It appeared weekly and then semimonthly in Winnipeg from February 1936, and then continued as a weekly in Toronto from 1938 to June 1940 under the title Vpered. It was published by breakaway members of the Ukrainian Labour-Farmer Temple Association, including Danylo Lobai, M. Khvalyboha, Toma Kobzei, and N. Handziuk, who formed the Alliance of Ukrainian Organizations and later Ukrainian Workers’ League. Although the paper retained its socialist perspective and supported the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) in Canadian politics, it openly criticized policies of the Soviet Union and gradually moved toward a compromise with Ukrainian nationalist organizations in Canada. The chief editor of both Pravda and Vpered was D. Lobai.
