Our diaspora continues relentlessly in their support of the national movement in the homeland. While their brothers and sisters in Lebanon maintain their presence in the streets days and nights, our expatriates and Lebanese descents hold their protests during the weekends. For our Lebanese-Canadians and Lebanese students in Canada, here is the list of the coming protests. We will do our best to keep updating it as soon as we receive announcements of new protests. Should you wish us to feature your protest’s photos on our Instagram, tag @the961.
Organizers of protests who cannot find their events here listed, you may get in touch with Tina Chamoun who is coordinating with us for the protests in the US and Canada.
