With the start of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games on Feb 12, we must unite
to show our resistance to the environmental degradation and negative
impacts to our communities that are a direct result of these Games.
Organized by the 2010 Welcoming Committee, endorsed by No One Is Illegal
and many of our allies, the Feb 12th protest will include our own games
and entertainment and will bring to light the greed of the corporate
Olympic circus.

The "No One Is Illegal, Canada is Illegal" block stands against the
ongoing colonization of this land, resists the racist and police state,
opposes restrictive border controls and the exploitation of (im)migrant
workers, denounces the imperialist occupations waged across the globe by
the Canadian government and military, and combats the violence, poverty,
and environmental devastation inflicted disproportionately on women and
children by corporate profiteers and the capitalist system.

We stand in solidarity with all those against the Olympics and those
struggling for a liberated world. We stand for our dignity and
self-determination, and rise in struggle against all injustice. Please
join us.
