WE NEED YOUR HELP! JOIN OUR WEEKLY RALLIES IN SUPPORT OF THE ISRAELI HOSTAGES HELD BY HAMAS

March 5, 2023

Since October 7th, 2023, members of our community, along with Bridges for Peace and members of the Yazidi community have stood silently, on a major Winnipeg roadway holding posters with photographs of the remaining 134 hostages being held in Gaza, Israeli and Canadian flags and a giant sign reading, "WE WON'T STOP UNTIL THEY'RE ALL BACK ".

These silent weekly rallies have been very effective in communicating the plight of the hostages to the hundreds of drivers that pass by.  Many people honk and wave in support. A survivor of the Nova Festival saw a social media posting of a video of the rally with someone holding a poster of Hirsh Goldberg Polin's and it was sent to his mother, Rachel Goldberg Polin who said she was so inspired and so touched to see people in Winnipeg braving the cold for the hostages.  

These rallies make a difference !

We have attached a video and photos where many have braved the chilling wind and cold temperatures to rally for the hostages and for Israel.

If you would like to participate in these rallies and would like more information, please email [email protected].

May the hostages all return home safely NOW!

THANK YOU !
