Close to 50 Bishop’s University students and community members participated in a March for our Lives sibling march in solidarity with American students protesting for more stringent gun control laws.
The group met in the Quad on the BU campus for brief speeches before marching down through the centre of Lennoxville. Organizer Camille cournoyer deliberately planned for the march to pass Lennoxville and St. Antoine Elementary schools as a reminder that all students deserve a safe and secure learning environment.
The main march, which took place in Washington, DC, drew hundreds of thousands of protesters demanding proper gun control legislation.
