Location: The Bay (Vaughn Street & Portage Avenue)
Sodastream is a major target of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement due to their presence in the Occupied Territory; you can find out more information about the company here.
WCAIA has been working on building a Sodastream campaign for awhile now, and we’ve already begun applying pressure on a number of local retailers to encourage them to stop selling Sodastream products. We’re ready to move onto the next step.
We’ll be launching an information picket (in collaboration with some other interested folks) starting Saturday, February 9th running from 11 AM to 1 PM.
Weekly Picket:
Starting Saturday, February 9th
11 AM – 1 PM
Outside the Bay Downtown on the Vaughn & Portage and the Memorial & Portage Sidewalks
We need as many people out for the picket as we can get, especially for the launch on the 9th. This is an opportunity to directly influence the conversation on Palestine locally, nationally, and internationally, and we hope you can make it out.
More Information: Please e-mail info@wcaia.ca if you have any questions!
