Trump on the cross: ‘There are no kings of the day’ rallies draw hundreds of thousands
From Washington to Vancouver, and from Montreal to Berlin, thousands gathered on Saturday for the Second Day of the King, a day to show US President Donald Trump and what organizers describe as Authoritarianism.
In Vancouver, hundreds gathered in the city on Saturday for this event, held in Jack Poole Plaza next to the Olympic Cauldron, among 2,000, and was one of the more than 2,000 demonstrations gathered around the world.
“In Canada, we will not turn back to chaos, deceit and brutality. Grow our movement and join us,” the organizers read in a release.
Organizers emphasized the organization’s commitment to nonviolent action, with on-site marches to help reduce tensions and ensure the event remains safe and accessible.
The demonstration was held on flat ground to accommodate those with mobility needs, and accessible bathrooms were available.
Organizers also emphasize the need to demonstrate safety during protests.

“Peaceful development is on the rise,” organizers said in a statement. “‘No strategy’ is more than a slogan, it is the basis of democracy.”
Similar gatherings were held Saturday in Montreal in Montreal, where organizers saw 2,000 participants experience the same demonstration.
This organization has seen hundreds of thousands of participants around the world to gather public spaces in support of the voice of the cause.
“From New York to Berlin, from Toronto to Tokyo, and right here in Montreal, people are coming together to remind us that democracy is not a good thing,” said David Hashelin-Schuilenburg, Chairman of the chapter, told the crowd.
Citizens of the US and Berlin for 10 years, Jennie Litser-Neves saw her and its support in Washington.
“As a foreigner here in Germany, it’s very important to me that America was founded on generations, by immigrants, and that they’re trying to close that person down is a really big deal,” he told global news.
