if only they protested our current government as much as they protest issues in other countries.

Why don’t they go over and help then? Wasting time, money and resources over here doesn’t help the Gaza crew or the Palestinians

Funny how this didn’t happened in January when we had cold winter weather in Montreal, such brave protesters

Some Canadians inspire the world like the Truckers. And some Canadians copy Americans like BLM & this pro-Hamas stuff. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Wearing a mask outside. Thank you for letting me know not to take you seriously.

Well I guess they have some time to spare between finishing final exams and before they start their summer jobs.

If they're proud of what they're doing, why do they all have their faces covered?

I noticed that the demonstrators weren't anywhere to be seen when over 1000 Israelis were murdered by hamas.

Maybe they can all take their tent incampments to Gaza. Show support them there.

Palestine calling for a ceasefire is like when two friends are wrestling and the one losing calls for a timeout. And just when the one who was winning thinks that it's over, the losing coward attacks again. They dont want a ceasefire, they just want to regroup.

Students have learned how to chant and wave a flag.

Send them to Gaza and let them demonstrate and protest there .

It is always the same story for the privileged. It is easy to see who is doing the dying and who is crying foul.

Why are they covering their facial identities? Cowards.

[swong]

Glad I am not a student anymore. Not sure how educated students are on this issue

Look up son of Hamas interviewed by J. Peterson.

Students will take any cause on and escalate for their own pleasure.

Students are the most useful out of all useful idiots...

Israel heard about this protest and the war came to an end….such a powerful move by these courageous young liberals
