"They're deporting people back to a military occupation," said Rabie Masri, head of the Coalition Against the Deportation of Palestinian Refugees. Masri says that 99 per cent of Palestinian refugees are refused refugee status by immigration Canada.
One elderly family has been living in the basement of the Notre-Dame-de-Grâce church. According to one protester, "they just want to live out their remaining years in Canada."

The Dominion is a monthly paper published by an incipient network of independent journalists in Canada. It aims to provide accurate, critical coverage that is accountable to its readers and the subjects it tackles. Taking its name from Canada's official status as both a colony and a colonial force, the Dominion examines politics, culture and daily life with a view to understanding the exercise of power.
