There’s a cross-border rally happening on June 20 at 2pm in the run-up to the CUSMA review as part of the Days of Solidarity happening across Canada, Mexico and the United States over the months of May and June. The American contingent will be at Freedom Park in Buffalo the Canadian side will assemble directly across the Niagara River  at the Niagara River Public Boat Launch at 184 Niagara Blvd in Fort Erie.

We want to reject the politics of division inherent to Trump’s rigged trade deal and show that workers across Canada, Mexico and the United States are united in solidarity.

Bring signs and banners showing your solidarity if you can!

MPP Wayne Gates will also be speaking at the event.
