Victoria B.C. Canada’s protest against U.S. President Donald Trump’s views on women’s rights.
Was a very interesting afternoon yesterday in Victoria as thousands gathered in Centennial Square plaza to protest against U.S. President Donald Trump’s views on women’s rights.
Everyone I interacted with throughout the day were friendly and passionate about the common cause they were rallying together to fight.
Below are a few photos from the event that I felt captured the passion and the volume of people that were in attendance.
