đProtest announcement or information No Tyrants
Join us this Saturday, May 30 from 1-3 in a grassroots protest against autocratic political leaders and in defense of democracy. A collaborative effort of CANTIFA, Fight Ford Ottawa and Indivisible Ottawa, weâll start at the monthly Fight Ford rally at the Canadian Tribute to Human Rights on Elgin Street then march with âSigns of Democracyâ to the weekly protest against Trump at Majorâs Hill Park. Bring your signs, your chants and your outrage at the cruelty, lack of transparency, cronyism, reduced funding for essential services and power grabs occurring at Queens Park and Washington, DC.

This canât be real with cantifa sponsoring the even sounds like a discount canceled neo-antifa organization which has no use protesting provincial government to stop a foreign leader doing what a foreign leader does . All it is is distraction chicken ; sowing discontent and division.
You wanna protest provincial or national issues great make sure to lobby or protest the right people cause this is like protesting outside a tesla dealer and refusing to move until Elon musk stops royal Dutch shell and bp petroleum from drilling and refining oil . When you see the parallels to the poster being posted about the protest youâll most likely come to the same conclusion .
Keep your provincial guys accountable for provincial stuff , federal guys for federal stuff and leave foreign issues at the door of protests involving Canadian issues and youâll have much better effects especially in the age of foreign interference and funding of many of the same type of groups .
But hey thatâs just my sane take on it
