Ottawa: Say No To Racism! Yes to Immigrant Justice!

Start: Sunday, September 15, 2024 2:00 PM

Location:Canadian Tribute to Human Rights220 Elgin St., Ottawa, ON ON K2P 1L7 CA

Right-wing politicians are scapegoating immigrants for the housing and affordability crisis, diverting attention from corporate greed and government policy failures. All workers, including migrants and immigrants, are suffering from decades of cuts to healthcare, housing, education, and social services. The elite want us divided—citizen against newcomer—so we don't unite against billionaires, landlords, and climate criminals profiting from our crisis. The federal Liberals are mirroring Conservative tactics, shutting down immigration avenues. Regularization—permanent resident status for undocumented people—was promised in December 2021 but still has not been delivered, while migrants remain underpaid, exploited, and excluded.

We must act now to halt the tide of xenophobia before it entrenches further, as it has in the United States and Europe. Those of us who believe in fairness and justice must flood the streets in the thousands, rejecting immigrant scapegoating and distraction.
