The Council of Canadians - Winnipeg Chapter

On July 1st over 100 people gathered in Winnipeg to stand in solidarity with the over 900 people imprisoned during the Toronto G20 protests.

 

Members of FemRev, Copwatch, the Anarchist Black Cross, the Winnipeg New Socialist Group, Canadian Federation of Students and local community activists put together the event in reaction to the injustice in Toronto. The march and the large crowd gathered many onlookers in the midst of Canada Day celebrations on the corner of Osborne Street and Stradbrook Avenue. Speakers from throughout the community spoke of their outrage.
