Thousands protest against anti-Islam, anti-immigration rally at Vancouver City Hall - BC | Globalnews.ca: Brad Salzberg with the Cultural Action Party said Saturday’s protest wasn’t about supremacy.
“It’s not about supremacy, I don’t believe in racial supremacy. We are concerned about Islamic ideology or Sharia law becoming entrenched in our society as we have witnessed in Western European countries.”
An estimated 4,000 people attended a counter-rally at City Hall that was organized by an ad-hoc group calling itself Stand Up to Racism Metro Van.
Signs reading “live with love” and “diversity = strength” were spotted throughout the packed crowd as speakers talked about tolerance and the need for a more inclusive society.
Rae Figursky with Stand up Against Racism Metro Vancouver said the rally was about standing up for the values in the community.
