Dozens of Hindu Canadians gathered in freezing temperatures at Mississauga Celebration Square to call attention to what they describe as ongoing violence and discrimination against religious minorities in Bangladesh.
The demonstrators braved temperatures as low as −23°C to voice their concerns for Hindus, Christians, Jains, Buddhists and other minority groups in Bangladesh. The protesters urged Canada’s prime minister, Mark Carney, to take “principled, democratic action” to protect vulnerable communities and hold perpetrators of abuse accountable.
