The Canadian Hindu Advocacy, Jewish Defence League of Canada, Costa Christian Mission, and International Christian Voice would like to express our communities’ disgust with the surge in domestic violence and ‘honour killings’ afflicting Canada’s Islamic community.
On December 6th, the National Day of Action on Violence against Women, we will honour female victims of violence by protesting against the TDSB for permitting Islamic prayers and gender apartheid at Valley Park Middle School. We will hold this protest at Philosopher’s Walk (University of Toronto) to coincide with the location of the the White Ribbon Memorial.
December 6 Candlelight Vigil takes place at Philosopher's Walk, which is located between the Royal Ontario Museum and the University of Toronto's Varsity Stadium and Arena, near the major intersection of Bloor Street, Queen's Park Crescent and Avenue Road. The site is readily accessible via the TTC, as it is within a 5-minute walk of the Museum (Yonge-University-Spadina line) and St. George (Bloor and Yonge-University-Spadina line) subway stations.
