On Wednesday, October 1, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM, Montreal’s community and allies will gather outside the Chinese Consulate (2100 Rue Sainte-Catherine O) to peacefully protest the 76th year of Chinese occupation in East Turkistan.

This July marks 16 years since the Urumchi Massacre—a day when thousands of Uyghurs took to the streets to protest injustice, only to be met with brutal violence.
