Nothing Like a Good Counter-Protest

Especially when it swamps the bad.
Saturday’s counter-rally inspired by a planned far-right demonstration at city hall.

Finding the far right-wing became a case of “Where’s Nazi Waldo?”. They were hard to find in a happy crowd of (estimated) 4-5,000 love children and peaceniks. A typically motley and lively Vancouver crowd.
My hope is that this outpouring of support for humanism will create political awareness.  Votes matter.  And those who don’t vote run the risk of their governments falling into unhealthy hands.
A collection of signs, and two persons probably from (or inspired by) the original far-right demonstration.
