#ShameonScotiabank Picket, Nov 29

  • Join us on November 29, 3 pm at Broadway & Commercial, Vancouver to mark the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinians by telling Scotiabank that we will not rest until they divest completely from Israeli war crimes. Any funding of genocide is too much.

Scotiabank’s asset fund has reduced its half a billion dollar investment in Elbit 4 times, but still owns 1.3% of Elbit shares (worth approx. $112 million). Many groups and individuals have been part of the campaign to say #ShameonScotiabank for funding Israeli genocide; it is this collective pressure that produced results. A special shoutout to allies in the artists and writers community who embraced this issue, especially with regards to the Giller Prize.
