Place des Arts Metro, Jeanne-Mance Between St. Catherine and Maisonneuve

In the last few days immigration officials have once again come into the homes of people who don’t have the right papers and taken them away. This is something that happens every day to people all over this country.

We’re sick and tired of our lovers, friends, and neighbours being stolen from us. No one should have to live in such a precarious state, not knowing when or if they will be ripped from their homes and separated from their loved ones. We’re sick and tired of racist immigration bureaucrats deciding the fates of others and sending them back to situations that could mean death, abuse, and torture. We’re sick of the courts that force people to justify their right to exist within arbitrary lines drawn by the state. We’re sick of the ongoing raids, the police harassment, and the border itself.

In the longstanding climate of repression towards those resisting this system or those just trying to survive it, the government is trying to pass a bill that will put more people in prisons and detention centres, more cops on our streets, and more folks on the road with deportation orders in hand. And while we’re not surprised, we’re still angry.

We’re gathering at Place des Arts Metro, Jeanne-Mance between St. Catherine and Maisonneuve.
We’re bringing banners, fliers, noise-makers and our anger and frustration. We’d love it if you’d join us.

Who is organizing this demo? Some of us are involved in supporting people who are trying to survive the immigration system, some of us are trying to get through it ourselves. All of us are anarchists who want an end to a system that tries to dominate and exploit us by brutally controlling the movement of people while promoting the movement of capital.
