Events at USask and the University of Regina included Palestinian speakers, shared meals, art and reading groups and prayer.

A pro-Palestine sit-in at the University of Saskatchewan campus on Friday showed support for the people in Gaza and occupied universities.“We are here to provide a safe space for people in the community, Palestinian members of the community, students, staff, faculty, alumni and to engage in conversations,” May Elsayed,“Today is a chance for us to get in touch with everybody and get to know them first-hand so we are not just a petition or a name online somewhere,” Elsayed said.

“We are trying to show a stance and solidarity with the many other encampments across Canada, the United States and even the UK, all around the world,” Batoul said.
