Over the week from September 15 – 19, participants in The March To Ottawa spoke passionately of the need for Canada to take real action against Israel to deter the ongoing genocide in Gaza. On September 16th, Day 2 of the March To Ottawa, Alexandre Boulerice, Tatiana Harker, Baya El Hachemi, Najlaa Zaanin, Ibahim Younis and Jeff Houlahan spoke eloquently on behalf of Palestinians and the need for Canada to intervene against Israel. Boulerice has been a steadfast supporter of Palestine, but without the commitment of the governing Liberals the massacre will continue. On December 18th, Day 4 of the March To Ottawa, Dr. Nimâ Machouf, Harker, Kelsey Lyseng and Tara St. James responded to PM Carney’s announcement that Canada will recognize the State of Palestine and to announce its next steps in the defense of the rights of the Palestinian people and against the genocide in Gaza. Dr. Nimâ Machouf, epidemiologist and participant of the Flotilla 1000 Thousands Madleens will set sail for Gaza in the coming days. On December 19th, Day 5 of the March To Ottawa, Manuel Tapial and Houlahan spoke of the desperate plight of Palestinians in Gaza and the moral imperative for Canada and Canadians to take real action against Israel’s genocide in Gaza. They contrasted this desperate need, with the fact that only nine of 343 members of parliament we willing to take a few steps from their offices and honour the murdered children of Gaza by saying their names aloud. All Canadians should be outraged and ashamed on their behalf.
