Hi, I wanted to share some Canadian-specific resources in support of the BLM movement. End the misconception that Canada is better than our southern neighbour, our history is plagued with the systematic oppression of the black and indigenous community and we must do better. Black Lives Matter. All cops are bastards, in Canada too.
As allies it’s essential for us to educate ourselves and support in every way we can. If you are unable to make it to a protest (and even if you have and want to further provide support) and have the means to do so, please consider supporting these Canadian black-led organizations/funds instead:
Resources for non-Black folks to support Black communities in Canada
COVID-19 Black Emergency Support Fund
Justice for Regis Korchinski-Paquet
Black Lives Matter Toronto
Toronto Protester Bail Fund
Black Lives Matter Vancouver
Black in BC Community Support Fund for COVID-19
Black Legal Aid Centre
