Casal Català de Vancouver reaction to the sentence imposed by the Spanish courts to the Catalan political prisoners.

Llaç groc- Llibertat presos polítics

The Casal Català de Vancouver wants to remember the more than three thousand people that have been subject to reprisals by Spain: prison, exile, economic ruin for defending fundamental democratic rights.

With all of them, our solidarity

 

The Casal Català de Vancouver recognizes that we develop our activities primarily in traditional territory, never ceded, of the following nations: xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh). We thank them all for their hospitality.
