\n

“Thousands of people attended rallies in towns and cities across Canada on Saturday to speak out against Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s decision to suspend Parliament until March.<\/p>\n

More than 60 rallies were planned across Canada, with protests also slated for London, England, and several U.S. cities.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“Protest outside Prime Minister Office ” (CTV Calgary with video)<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

“It was a cold day to be outside protesting, but over 300 people gathered at Stephen Harper’s constituency office Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n

They were there voicing their displeasure with the Conservative move to prorogue Parliament.<\/p>\n

“I’m tired of our government acting with impunity and with such an arrogant way that they think democracy doesn’t count any more,” said protestor John Landry.<\/p>\n

“We are telling them to get back to work. Make Parliament work,” added Stan Nykiel.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
