Hundreds march in support of Gaza
A crowd of hundreds demonstrated Saturday in support of the people of Gaza and in condemnation of the actions of Israel.
Another march was held Saturday, along with others elsewhere in Canada, to honour missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls.
And a march was held on Nuns Island in support of social housing.

There was also a sizeable contingent of cyclists yesterday supporting Palestine that seemed to go north along Ave du Parc and turned east onto Villeneuve. Guessing they went back south along St-Urbain?

I had to click on that Nuns’ Island link because it’s so discordant to my prejudices – the well-heeled showing solidarity with the vulnerable!? Maybe they want more social housing on the island to prevent low-end projects being developed near them? Maybe it was the residents of the less-wealthy neighbourhood at the southern end? Nope, Legault recently bought a condo there so the fine folks from FRAPRU and CACV organized a protest just for him.

Gee and here I thought with his Mom in a home Legault might move back in to her place in Ste Anne de Bellevue

Legault’s ancestry goes back generations in Ste‑Anne and environs. He’s a real West Island boy.
