Weekly protests calling for Canada to end its arms sales to Israel have occurred in downtown Victoria and at the B.C. legislature for the past year.
Protesters marched from the Johnson Street Bridge to Lockheed Martin’s administrative offices in Esquimalt on Saturday morning calling for a stop to Canadian arms exports to Israel amid the war in Gaza.
Protest organizer Tara Ehrcke said the protest was one of 15 co-ordinated demonstrations across Canada on Saturday calling for an arms embargo on Israel over its war in Gaza. Israel’s 13-month war in Gaza has killed more than 43,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, according to Gaza health officials who do not distinguish between civilians and combatants.
