Trump's mass deportation machine doesn't run on American parts alone. Canadian companies are supplying the tools, the guards, and the armoured vehicles - and the Carney government is quietly building a mass deportation machine here in Canada.

Join us this Thursday to oppose Bill C-12 and demand Canada cut ties with ICE.

Senators will soon be voting on Bill C-12 - a law that would let Ottawa cancel immigration status for entire groups overnight. Join us this Thursday at the Toronto HQ of one of the companies supporting Trump’s attack on migrants.

RALLY: STOP BILL C-12, CUT CANADIAN TIES TO ICE

Thursday, February 26 | 12pm (noon)

Here's what's at stake — and why the two are inseparable.

The Canadian companies arming ICE:

  • Hootsuite: signed a deal with ICE worth up to US$2.8 million to provide social media monitoring tools.
  • GardaWorld: is staffing 'Alligator Alcatraz' - a cage facility built in eight days in the Florida Everglades, designed so that escapees face alligators and pythons. Their U.S. subsidiary has been cleared to bid up to US$138 million in further ICE emergency detention contracts. The Quebec government is subsidizing Gardaworld.
  • Roshel: Supplied 20 armoured tactical vehicles to ICE in a rush order worth roughly C$10 million.

And what Carney is building here:

Bill C-12 is Canada’s version of the same logic: attacking and scapegoating migrants to distract and divide the working class.

Bill C-12 would let the government cancel work permits, study permits and permanent residence applications for entire categories of people at once - with no real right of appeal. Refugees would face harsh new timelines and one-year bars that block them from getting a fair hearing. The bill also massively expands surveillance of migrants and information-sharing across agencies and with foreign bodies.

Join us on Thursday, February 26 at 12pm in Toronto to reject attacks on migrants - on both sides of the border.
