The goal of this action is to ensure Zim knows their profiteering from Israeli settler colonialism is not welcome here, not to be arrested.
Block the Boat Guidelines
1. Do not talk to the police. There are police liaisons whose role is to do this. If police talk to you, direct them to the police liaison.
2. If you have a concern or need help during the action, talk to an organizer. Organizers are wearing brightly coloured armbands.
3. Should you need legal assistance, the BC Law Union is available to assist 604-876-1452.
4. Be prepared to be flexible and ready to march.
5. If the cops arrive, follow the instructions of the organizers who will help move you to a safe location.
6. When you leave the action for any reason (washroom, going home, etc) always go with at least one other person and preferably in a group. Do not go by yourself.
7. A washroom and free coffee is available (5 min walk) at 706 Clark Drive on the corner of Georgia Street. It is a red building called the Centre for Socialist Education.
