Gathering organized by the Non-Status Women’s Collective
Saturday December 3rd at 1pm
Outside the Centre des femmes d’ici et d’ailleurs offices (8043 St-Hubert)
Facebook event: www.facebook.com/events/
In the context of 12 days of actions against gendered violence.
After a year of actions and mobilization by the Non-Status Women’s Collective of Montréal, including an open letter
to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau describing the lived precarity of tens of thousands of non-status women, we still have received no response to our demands, only indifference and silence.
We demand that the government take a position on the regularization of non-status people in Canada.
In the context of actions against gendered violence and to denounce the violence produced by the immigration system toward non-status women, we invite everybody to join us this Saturday December 3rd at 1pm outside the Centre des femmes d’ici et d’ailleurs offices (8043 St-Hubert, close to Jarry metro).
Bring your masks and white sheets in support of non-status women.
We call for the regularization of all non-status migrants in Canada!
