“We oppose the US ban on people travelling from seven Muslim-majority countries. We demand the immediate release of all of those who continue to be illegally detained,” the organizers’ statement continues. “We will also mourn the lives lost during the January 29 shooting at a mosque in Quebec City. We are saddened beyond words and disturbed by the impact of Islamophobia in Canada and the US.”
