Thousands of Winnipeggers gathered at the legislature building on Sunday to attend Rally for Canada, hosted by the provincial government. People showed up to celebrate the Canadian nation and show their Manitoban and Canadian pride!
“We’ll always be the true north strong and free. And we will never be the 51st State!” Kinew exclaimed. “Together, we will keep this land glorious and free! Merci, vive la Canada!”
The rally featured musical guests, food trucks, and plenty of activities for kids, with premier Wab Kinew addressing the crowd.

“The fact that somebody like me, people like us have opportunity to make our lives what we want them to be, that’s what makes Canada so special, that’s what makes Canada so beautiful, and that’s what makes Canada worth fighting for,” said Kinew.
People showed up in droves, decked out in all things Canadian, and the message to President Trump and the United States was quite clear.
“Canada will always stay as Canada, will always be a country. Trump will never ever take this beautiful country away from us,” said one Winnipegger who attended the rally.
Another saying, “We came out here because he’s trying to make Canada the 51st State, and because he doesn’t like people that were born into the wrong body.”
