📍Gathering at Moncton City Hall

🚩Marching together to the Forum

This is more than a rally—it is a collective stand for truth, justice, and the right to remember. We call on all solidarity groups across New Brunswick and neighboring provinces to come together in unity and strength.

Let us make this a powerful, historic moment of collective action.

Let our voices be heard.

Let our presence be undeniable.

Together, we remember. Together, we resist. Together, we rise. https://www.facebook.com/share/1Re7oFbF8P/
