Unthinkable in American politics. (Not the Nazi part, the withdrawing part)

Community Solidarity Ottawa (CSO) is condemning a rally slated to take place on Parliament Hill this Thursday that will headline speakers who promote fear and hatred against immigrants, religious minorities, and gender-diverse people. #Ottawa #nospaceforhate

Big thanks to the good folks at @csottawa.bsky.social, all the community organizers, community groups, and labor unions that organized #NoSpaceForHate in Ottawa. I met a super rad 17 year old kid, their first protest, who had an anti-capitalism sign. Solidarity forever!

Loose networks of anti-2SLGBTQIA+ and far-right activists all over the country delivered the payoff from months of dedicated planning today. They succeeded only at showing their own dysfunction and getting the wrong, misspelled hashtag trending. #1MillionMarch4Chidren #losers

Thank you to everyone who came out to show support against hate today, both in Ottawa and all over Canada. As the saying went: We go where they go. Today, we showed love over hate across the country. 🏳️‍🌈✊

In #1MillionMarch4Chidren's official private volunteer chat, national organizer Dana Metcalfe has suggested #1MillionMarch volunteers contact CUPE Ontario's phone number. She attached a "warning" posted by an anonymous (lowercase b/c no it isn't the hacker group) account.

Mahmoud Mourra, an official spokesperson for the 1 Million March parent group "Hands Off Our Kids", as well as the organizer for #Calgary's march, shared some video inspiration with the official #1MillionMarch4Kids Facebook group yesterday. It was by Giorgia Meloni, a fascist.
