Festival international Nuits d’Afrique boycott Israeli Apartheid
2022-07-20 17:30 - 19:30 (America/New_York) | Quartier des spectacles, 1435 Rue St-Alexandre, Montreal, Quebec, H3A 2G4, Canada
Festival international Nuits d’Afrique is once again marred in controversy over its 2022 edition. Not only did the organizers fail by naming a white Quebecois to be the spokesperson of the events, they also promote Israeli apartheid by inviting the Israeli music group PULKES BAND. The band is well known for cultural appropriation, promotion and whitewashing of Israeli Apartheid and colonial tactics.

Come to our vigile

Come ask Mayor Valérie Plante questions
2022-06-13 05:00 - 21:00 | Conseil Municipal de Montréal, 155, Rue Notre-Dame Est, Montréal, Québec, H2Y 1B5, Canada
Democracy in action!
Come ask Mayor Valérie Plante questions about the Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal.
The 2022 Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal will take place on September 11 in Montreal and to this end, the City of Montreal is a public partner of the sporting event of international scope. The City therefore assumes an important part of ethical responsibility in the promotion of this prestigious, high-caliber competition.
Facing such serious crimes as apartheid and racism, silence means approval. The argument that we should not mix politics and sports is false. Government financing of sports is clearly political when a participant has the aim of promoting Israeli Apartheid.
The Union Cycliste International (UCI) has banned Russian and Belarus teams from its international calendar including the Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal and Québec. Most Russian and Belarus athletes have not taken a position on the war in Ukraine.
The Israel Premier Tech (Israel Start-up Nation) has proclaimed itself an ambassador of Israel to the world and requires that all its racers also be ambassadors for Israel.
The Grand Prix must not be used to promote Israeli Apartheid.
Valérie Plante: Why not respect the human rights of the Palestinian people?
Why not boycott Israel Premier Tech?
Have questions for our elected officials? Come ask them June 13th!
A public question and answer period is held during each council meeting, whether ordinary or extraordinary.
Each person may ask only one question.
Here’s how it works:

Mayor Plante : Time to withdraw the Israel Premier Tech cycling team of the Grand Prix Cycliste
2022-05-16 17:00 - 21:00 | Hôtel de ville de Montréal, 275 Notre-Dame St. East, Montreal, Quebec H2Y 1C6, Montreal, Quebec, H2Y 1C6, Canada
Campaign launch : Stop the race : Don’t collaborate with Israeli APARTHEID
The launch will take place in front of the Montreal Municipal Council at 155 Notre Dame East (Lucien-Saulnier building) Monday May 16 at 5 pm.

We invite you to the launch of the campaign against the participation in the Montreal Grand Prix of the Israel Premier Tech cycling team, a team sponsored by Premier Tech, a Quebec company, which proclaims itself an ambassador for Israeli apartheid.
The 2022 Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal will take place on September 11. The City of Montreal is a public partner of this international sporting event. The City therefore assumes an important part of ethical responsibility in the promotion of this prestigious, high-calibre competition.
We should remember that during the campaign of boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) against apartheid in South Africa in 1986, the former mayor of Montreal, Jean Doré, declared Montreal an anti-apartheid city and banned any commercial relations with South African suppliers.

Palestinians and Jews united (PAJU) urges the Mayor of Montreal to follow the example of Jean Doré and make Montreal once more an anti-apartheid city. We must not continue commercial relations with a state which practices a system of institutionalized segregation and which ignores law and human rights.
PAJU (Palestinians and Jewish Unity) is now in its 22nd year of existence. As an organization of solidarity with the Palestinian people and defender of human rights, our campaign in front of the city of Montreal carries one demand and one only: the intervention of the Mayor for the withdrawal of the Israel Premier Tech cycling team of the competition.
This launch will take place in front of the Montreal Municipal Council at 155 Notre Dame East (Lucien-Saulnier building) Monday May 16 at 5 pm.
