A sign from the Buffalo, N.Y. Hands-Off Rally.
Even as we Canadians rightfully show our anger against the threats Trump and his followers continue to make against our country, we should remember that there are many Americans, including our neighbours in Buffalo, N.Y., who also oppose the awful damage rump is working to doing on their country and ours..
That is why t is important for Canadians and Americans who oppose Trump’s reign of terror to show support for each other, just as citizens from the Buffalo area did days ago when they lined up on their side of the Niagara River near the Peace Bridge, waving Canadian flags so people on our side could see.
This April 5th, 2025, thousands of Buffalo area residents also joined the giant ‘Hands-Off’ rallies countless hundreds of thousands of fellow citizens were participating in across their country in what will hopefully be the beginning of a nation-wide movement to stop Trump and his rancid march for autocracy and fascism.

In solidarity, I believe that we, the people of both countries, can beat this orange monster and keep the freedom and democracy that so many of our parents and grandparents fought and died for as allies on the battlefields of Europe 80 and more years ago alive.
