Protest will be this Sunday. September 13, 2026. See sidebar for list of locations. Just plop the coordinates closest to you into your favourite map software. Let's show up with flags, signs, and let them know how angry we are.

The purpose of this protest is for Americans to take pictures of people protesting against their regime as they drive into Canada. That's all I want from this. Ideally, I'd like enough of those pictures to be posted online to make the news, perhaps even the American news. They need to know how angry we are. Because, I don't think they do. They don't truly understand. That being said, I highly recommend covering your face. Smartphones, especially American smartphones, the cameras specifically, are connected to the internet, AI, and presumably will be going back through American customs. Plus the goal I just stated. I think enough is said right there.

Just to be clear I am not asking to block any roadways or harass anyone. Simply to stand together, in the specified spots and put on a display of our displeasure towards the bullying.

If you're local to any of these areas and have any comment about the location or if you think there's a better spot, please don't be shy to let me know. I'm really hoping to collaborate with more locals across the country so we can get this thing off the ground.

And look, I know my attempts to post about this on Lemmy have been off to a rough start. I'm not really an internet forum person, but like, I'm not some scammer either. I'm just trying to do my part in standing up for Canada. If you think I've been too rude, well maybe it's because I'm angry about this stuff, and being called a scammer. Just imagine you really believed in a cause and were accused of trying to scam people because you tried to spread the word but didn't post about it the right way. I'm only one person trying to rally people together to show our collective anger to the Americans who choose to visit us. There's no other organization or entity behind this, just me, so if it seems like I don't know what I'm doing, it's because it is.

I'm not going to post any other link to any other site. If you use EhNow, I made an event there, if you use hey.cafe, I made a post there. I am not asking anyone to sign up for anything or download any app or click any link. Only to coordinate enough to put on a display of pushback towards the US. If you're interested, great! if not, great, have a nice day. Either way, I'm not looking for an argument.

Let's keep up the fight. Elbows up!

Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
