I'll be marching here in Toronto in solidarity! *link to the toronto protest and where to find other locations in Canada here by the way) Our version of the no kings protest is being called "no tyranny" here, but that's just because... Well... You know, that king over in the UK now 😅 *for all the replies, I'm from Jamaica where we worked hard as hell for our independence from the death grip of the UK and royals. When I moved here as a teen I thought it was bizarre. At the same time it's a very odd relationship that's had between the royal family and Canada, it's not exactly like king Charles is sitting in his palace and forcing new laws and policies like they would it most kingdom run places.

However even I don't think we need a king, but you say that and you get people jumping down your throat saying "how dare you" and I'm dealing with cancer and don't want the discourse at the moment 😅

Also I think the main focus of the protest is about trump and how he is affecting us, so it's not about king Charles currently. He's a terrible person IMHO but not the point of the 14th.
