As the October referendum approaches, join us for a screening of Canada's Invisible Children and a discussion on migrant rights.

As the Alberta Government’s October referendum draws closer, migrants and their families are being blamed for crises they did not cause. We're bringing people together to push back and to organize for real solutions.

The evening opens with a screening of Canada's Invisible Children, a film that puts a human face on the realities of undocumented children and families living in Alberta. What follows is a community discussion connecting those stories to the growing attacks on migrant rights: threats to education, healthcare, and the basic dignity every person deserves.

This is a space to get informed, hear from people with lived experience and roots in community organizing, and think seriously about what solidarity looks like right now as exclusion grows and the stakes get higher.

Come ready to listen, reflect, and act.
