A protest was held in downtown Montreal in solidarity with the ongoing weekly protests in Bil’in, Palestine and to commemorate Palestinian activist Bassam Ibrahim Abou Rahme the eighteenth Palestinian killed during popular protests in Bil’in village against the Israeli apartheid wall which have occurred each week since 2005.

This protest was held in downtown Montreal at Indigo bookstore within the cross-Canada campaign launched in December 2006 to target the majority shareholders of Indigo/Chapters, Heather Reisman and Gerry Schwartz, who established the HESEG Foundation for Lone Soldiers, a program of financial support for former ‘lone soldiers,’ or non-Israeli mercenaries who leave their country to fight in the Israeli military.
