Pro-Palestinian rallies were held in both Edmonton and Calgary on Sunday. Fatmeh Kalouti, one of the organizers of the Edmonton rally, didn't have the numbers in from Sunday's event yet, but estimated more than 1,000 people attended. "We've had support messages from Black Lives Matter Edmonton, from the Ukrainian community in Edmonton, from the Jewish community in Edmonton, from the Mennonite community in Edmonton. People in Edmonton are so quick to support and so quick to mobilize and be there to help in any way that they can." People linked up in a human chain throughout the event, separated by Palestinian flags and keffiyeh, a Palestinian scarf.
