SUMMARY:Meet the MacDonald-MacLaren Tenant Union!
DESCRIPTION:In February 2025\, Concorde Properties\, led by Jordan Tannis\, served eviction notices to the tenants of 17 MacDonald and 53 MacLaren in Centretown. \nIn the months since\, the developer has forced entry into tenants’ units\, harassed them\, and done construction work on the building without permits\, including tearing down people’s balconies while they were in their homes. Tenants say their building hallways are littered with dangerous construction debris and smoke detectors disconnected\, among other safety concerns. \nThe tenants have formed a union to fight the renoviction and need the support of their community. Come out to Minto Park on Saturday\, June 7 to meet the tenants\, and find out more about how to support their fight. And follow @fightoftheconcorde on Instagram to keep up with the renoviction nightmare.

SUMMARY:NO TYRANTS
DESCRIPTION:We don’t put up with mad tyrants. \nNO TYRANTS is an international day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech\, detained people for their political views\, threatened to deport American citizens\, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies. \nOn June 14—Flag Day in the US—Donald Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. It rises up everywhere else. \nOn Saturday\, June 14\, we’re taking to the streets internationally. We’re not gathering to feed his ego. We’re building a movement that leaves him behind. \nOn June 14\, Indivisible Ottawa is STANDING UP and saying NO TYRANTS in solidarity with hundreds of Indivisible groups in the US\, Indivisible Abroad\, Democrats Abroad\, concerned Canadians and allies around the world to say no tyrants\, no dictators and NO KINGs in the US.\nBring friends\, family\, colleagues\, signs and\, if you can\, dress as Tr*mp clowns (or one of his cronies.) Think bad blonde wig\, orange face\, long red tie\, and get creative! \nA core principle behind all No Kings/No Tyrants events is a commitmen to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

SUMMARY:Arms Embargo Now! Ottawa Protest
DESCRIPTION:Ottawa Join us on Saturday June 14th\, at 2pm\, at the Human Rights Monument to demand this government implement a full and immediate arms embargo on the genocidal zionist regime and finally recognize Palestine\, without condition! \n\nThis week\, a UN meeting is being held in New York to discuss recognizing a Palestinian state. The time to recognize is long overdue and we call on this government to do so without condition. But recognition alone means nothing if western governments continue their shameful complicity in Israel’s relentless attacks on Gaza\, the West Bank\, and Lebanon. While countries discuss this around a table\, countless families are left buried under rubble\, and many more are deprived of food\, water\, and medical aid.\n\nRecognition will mean nothing as long as Canada continues to profit from the export of the military equipment used to slaughter the people of Gaza. We need an arms embargo now! \n\n\nDATE: Saturday\, June 14\nTIME: 2PM\nPLACE: Human Rights Monument

SUMMARY:Solidarity with the Ramsook brothers
DESCRIPTION:Garick and Ramesh Ramsook came to Canada with the hope of improving their lives and that of their families. They were employed by Polat Construction\, a company located in the Ottawa area. The brothers worked to support Canada’s construction industry\, a vital industry particularly during the current housing crisis that exists.\n\nEmployed under Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program\, they were subjected to wage theft\, occupational hazards and workplace harassment. The Ramsook brothers\, along with other migrant and Canadian workers organized their workplace with the Carpenters Union. Shortly thereafter\, the workers were terminated.  Since their termination\, the workers have endured hardship.\n\nThis\, however\, is not a story of migrants falling through the cracks. Four migrant workers\, including the Ramsook brothers\, filed successful applications with the Ministry of Labour alleging wage theft under the Employment Standards Act. Across the province of Ontario under the Ford government\, the province has failed to enforce decisions of the Ministry of Labour to the tune of over $60 million dollars.  Polat Construction was found guilty and compelled to return \nover $140\,000 in wages.\n\nThe Ramsook brothers have appealed part of the decision to the OLRB to request further remedies and are awaiting a decision regarding their appeal.\n\nThe federal government has found that Polat Construction violated the rules of the TFW program. Currently the employer is on the feds’ non-compliant list. The company was fined $161\,000 with a five-year ban from employing temporary foreign workers. Despite these stiff penalties\, the federal government has failed to enforce monetary penalties for non-compliance\, to the tune of 40% or $4.5 million dollars since 2017.\n\nThe Ramsook brothers have decided to return home. Both the provincial and federal government have failed them. To honour their courage\, sacrifices\, and their demand for dignity\, fairness and respect\, we would like to invite you for a discussion and fundraiser to show solidarity with these comrades.\n\nRegistration: https://forms.gle/ZVRKh9rGkNKs5TRR8\n\nZoom link for meeting:   https://us02web.zoom.us/j/280034454\n\nArticle backgrounder: https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/article/they-came-from-jamaica-for-work-now-theyre-homeless-and-out-thousands-of-dollars-in-lost-wages/

SUMMARY:Canada & Gaza: What are our moral and legal obligations?
DESCRIPTION:Human rights activists have tried everything from determined demonstrations to private meetings with politicians to get Canada to act. It is all useful. But we have not been able to convince Canadians or our politicians that Canada can and should do something to stop the genocide in Gaza. The Ottawa Forum on Israel Palestine invites you to a public meeting in Ottawa to discuss what we can and should do. Read more.…. \n“The genocide in Gaza is the moral issue of our time\,” says Holocaust survivor and best selling author Gabor Mate M.D. Whoever says “genocide” has to act. By avoiding the word\, we avoid responsibility. \nFacing the greatest crime of the 21st century\, The Ottawa Forum on Israel Palestine (OFIP) wants to increase the pressure on Prime Minister Carney to live up to our legal and moral responsibilities. We invite anyone in Ottawa to attend a public meeting on June 16th\, 2025. \nInstead of just “preaching to the choir”\, the meeting aims to help “arm the choir” with knowledge and confidence. Three experts will help the audience better understand the issues involved and the challenges we face. If the meeting is successful\, it will reinforce our confidence to act – to speak to our friends\, to write letters\, to lobby politicians. In short\, to be able to increase pressure on our civic and political leaders to speak out and take action on this urgent issue. \nThe speakers \n\nIyas Salim\, Adjunct professor\, Carleton University – Dr. Salim grew up in Gaza where he still has both friends and family. He will share first hand information from Palestinians living the nightmare that Israel is inflicting on them and the options they face.\nPeggy Mason\, President Rideau Institute – A former Canadian ambassador\, she will examine Canada’s legal obligations under international and humanitarian law. What responsibility does Canada have to put into effect decisions/judgements of the International Court of Justice\, the UN Security council or the ICC. How well is Canada living up to its LEGAL obligations?\nSenator Yuen Pau Woo – What are the contradictory pressures facing the Carney government? Is there an evolution in our government’s position\, what are the debates\, the pressures\, and how can we can push forward to a stronger position? Why is the Canadian parliament so quick to say “genocide” in some cases\, but so reluctant to do so in the face of overwhelming evidence from Gaza?\n\nCost? \nThere is no charge for the event. However\, we gladly accept donations. \nRegistration? \nYou can register in advance by using this link: https://bit.ly/4kAVSDa or at the door (if there is still room). \nFree on site parking for about 100 cars. Carshare\, come early or take OC transpo.

SUMMARY:Amnesty Book Club presents Vinh Nguyen
DESCRIPTION:Join Amnesty International’s Book Club for a live online event for World Refugee Day with Vinh Nguyen\, Canadian author of the memoir The Migrant Rain Falls in Reverse\, in conversation with host Pacinthe Mattar. \nRegister for the free Zoom presentation  \nWith the Fall of Saigon on April 30\, 1975\, the U.S. war in Vietnam ended\, but the refugee crisis was only beginning. Among the millions of people who fled Vietnam by boat was Vinh Nguyen\, along with his mother and siblings\, and his father\, who left separately and then mysteriously vanished. \nDecades later\, Nguyen goes looking for answers. What he discovers is a sea of questions drifting above sunken truths. To find his father—and anchor himself in the present—Nguyen must piece together the debris of history with family stories that have been scattered across generations and continents\, kept for years in broken hearts and guarded silences. \nVinh Nguyen is a nonfiction editor at The New Quarterly\, curating an ongoing series on refugee\, migrant\, and diasporic writing. He is the co-editor of the academic books Refugee States: Critical Refugee Studies in Canada and The Routledge Handbook of Refugee Narratives\, and the author of Lived Refuge: Gratitude\, Resentment\, Resilience. His writing has been short-listed for a National Magazine Award and has received the John Charles Polanyi Prize in Literature. In 2022\, he was a Lambda Literary Fellow in Nonfiction for emerging LGBTQ writers. \nPacinthe Mattar is an award-winning journalist\, writer and producer. Her work\, featured on CBC News\, and in The Walrus\, the Toronto Star\, Al Jazeera\, Buzzfeed\, Chatelaine and more\, centres the lived experiences that are too often excluded from the mainstream. \n

SUMMARY:Ottawa Anarchist Bookfair
DESCRIPTION:The Ottawa Anarchist Bookfair is run by a group of local anarchists and anarchic-organizers who are interested in cultivating a culture of autonomous and decentralized organizing in so-called ottawa. Our fair will have a mixture of literature (books\, zines\, etc.) relevant to anarchism/anti-oppression/organizing\, community-run workshops & skillshares\, and tabling from autonomous community groups and organizers. \nWe acknowledge that as settlers on these stolen\, unceded and unsurrendered Algonquin Anishinaabe lands we represent part of the problem and are committed to operating in solidarity with Indigenous resistance and organizing however we can. Additionally\, we acknowledge the ways that power structures such as colonialism\, racism\, classism\, misogyny\, ableism\, and queerphobia replicate themselves both inside and outside of activist spaces. As a collective\, we aim to make this event as accessible as possible to those left behind by the state and mainstream society.

SUMMARY:Science for the People Magazine - Palestine issue launch
DESCRIPTION:JOIN US on Saturday July 5th from 1-3 PM at the Bronson centre (211 Bronson Ave) for the Ottawa launch of the latest issue of the Science for the People magazine on Palestine. \nIn this issue we focus on the oppression and liberation of the Palestinian people through the lens of revolutionary science and technology. STEM workers in the imperial core play a central role in the escalation of the genocide; but technical innovation under siege conditions plays a similarly important and often overlooked role in the vitality of the Palestinian resistance. \nOur launch will take the format of a roundtable talk discussing the “It takes a village to kill a child” report about the F35 program in Canada and Israel\, as well as some articles from the magazine. \nWe hope to see you there! Registration is not required\, but it will help us with planning.

SUMMARY:Art in the Park: Climate Connections and Crewel Embroidery
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a morning workshop from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM as part of Art in the Park—a series of outdoor sessions that blend art-making\, climate emotion dialogue\, and nature connection. This workshop offers a supportive\, welcoming space for youth to explore their feelings about the climate crisis through creative expression\, storytelling\, and community care. \nThis session focuses on crewel embroidery as a mindful\, grounding practice. Embroidery invites us to slow down\, notice the small details\, and put care into each stitch. In this hands-on\, beginner-friendly workshop\, participants will be invited to wander the park\, observe the local plant life\, and choose a plant—such as a dandelion\, sumac tree\, or goldenrod—that resonates with them. \nWe’ll provide a selection of fabrics\, but participants are encouraged to bring their own fabric items to embroider\, such as a tote bag\, jacket\, or scrap fabric. \nWhether you’re brand new to embroidery or an experienced textile artist\, this workshop is about more than technique—it’s about slowing down\, reconnecting with nature\, and making something meaningful. \nSpots are limited — register now! https://shorturl.at/FQcqy
