The Yom Ha’atzmaut rally is being held in Montreal this upcoming Wednesday May 7th at 11am at Phillips Square.
Last year, attendance reached nearly 25,000 people. This year, it’s extremely important to show up, as a show of support for Israel and a celebration of 55 years of independence.
The link above contains info for free bus transportation and other details. I plan to be there. Will you?
Update: In an interesting twist, former Quebec Premier Lucien Bouchard will be speaking at the rally. That ought to be . . . different, anyway. Considering probably almost none of the attendees will have voted for him or the PQ, it’s certainly odd, politically. Maybe that’s the point.
