2016 Photo Review
All Out for Democratic Renewal!
February
TML Daily is continuing its month
by month photo review of actions carried out by workers and their
allies in 2016.
On February 14 annual memorial marches were held to honour the memory
of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls. The mass actions
across the country demanded that the Canadian state be held to account
for the violence it continues to commit.
People from all walks of life mobilized to support the fighting peoples
of Venezuela, Haiti and Cuba, opposed U.S. and Canadian interference in
their countries and Canada's participation in warmongering.
Working people in Ontario and Quebec mobilized to reject the
anti-social austerity agenda and demand an end to cuts and
privatization and increased investments in social programs and public
services.
People continued their actions to defend the rights of all. This
included opposition to state-organized racist provocations and keeping
up the demand of Canadians for the repeal of the Anti-terrorism Act, 2015 or Bill
C-51, implemented by the Harper government in 2015 in the face of mass
opposition.
