A verified message from a Canadian Ally:

Canadian here. I’ve seen many messages lately by US folks asking if the demonstrations are “doing anything”. Questioning the purpose of protest and rallying because their administration is not listening and clearly, does not care.

To my American friends: they may not be listening, but the rest of the world is. Please keep showing up in numbers, because what the world sees is that you are not complicit or in agreement with what is being done in your name.

We see courage in the refusal to be silent. We see conscience in the crowds, the signs, the chants, the long days and the tired feet. History has always been shaped by people who showed up even when it felt futile, even when power pretended not to notice.

Your presence matters far beyond borders. It tells the world that values still live in your streets, that democracy is more than those temporarily in office, and that solidarity does not stop at a flag line.

We are watching. You are not shouting into the void. You are reminding the world, and each other, that resistance itself is a form of hope.
