Weekly Rally for Palestine


“International solidarity is not an act of charity: It is an act of unity between allies fighting on different terrains toward the same objective. The foremost of these objectives is to aid the development of humanity to the highest level possible.

Your solidarity, in this context, makes our people understand concretely that there are no enemy races or peoples; that the enemy of our people is that of all peoples: colonialism which has no race, imperialism which has no country.”

– Samora Mache

Join us every Saturday while we stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine.

We gather on the front lawn of the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia at:

  • 2 pm May to October
  • 1 pm November to April

We demand that our government:

  • End Canada’s complicity in Israeli occupation, apartheid and war crimes by cutting off any and all involvement with the Israeli state.
  • Impose sanctions on the Israeli state until its occupation, apartheid and war crimes come to an end including demanding that the borders are opened and humanitarian aid is let in.
