Join us to condemn the illegal U.S. airstrikes and abduction of the democratically elected President of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores. Venezuela has the world’s largest oil resources and at the press conference on Saturday, Trump said “We’re taking back the oil in Venezuela… We’re running the country… We’re going to be taking out a lot of wealth from Venezuela.” The attack against Venezuela is another aggressive U.S. war for oil.

Actions are taking place across Canada this week in solidarity with the people of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela against U.S. aggression.

The CWPJN condemns the January 3, 2026 U.S. military attacks against Venezuela, and joins the international call for emergency actions demanding: No War on Venezuela! Repatriate Venezuelan President Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores Now! We also denounce the Canadian government’s shameful support of the U.S.’s illegal ouster of President Maduro.

Not another U.S. war for oil. (See the CIA stats on Venezuela’s proven oil reserves)

Yes, things are happening at #WaterlooPublicSquare, but it still needs trees, not those fish skeletons that are arty but useless.

The "Unity Concert", a day-long concert was held there a month ago on one of the hottest days; nobody came because there was no shade.

@OWGF

View of Waterloo Public Square from the DJ booth "backstage" during the Unity Concert. There's a singer on stage to the right, and only three people where the audience should be taking pictures. A taxi is parked in front of the stage (Waterloo Taxi was a sponsor for the event).

View of an empty Waterloo Public Square from the DJ and sound booth for the "Unity Concert". Only two people can be seen. There's a taxi to the side of the stage, the sponsor for the event.

An empty Waterloo Public Square for the Unity Concert. The square is a concrete slab. In the distance is the stage with artsy structures that look like fish skeletons but provide absolutely no shade. There's a performer under a canopy, more canopies are at the edge of the square for vendors and sponsors. There is an umbrella to the left with picnic tables underneath, all empty.

Gaza is being starved to death!

The past few months have pushed our people to the edge — children are dying from hunger and dehydration, families are being wiped out under siege and bombing, and exterminated by a lack of food, water and medical care. This is a murderous genocide, and starvation has become an intentional weapon used by Israel. This inhumanity must be stopped through world protests and actions, we will honour our responsibility to bring this to an end.

JOIN US on Thursday 24 July 2025 at 6:00pm in Waterloo Public Square to demand an immediate lift of the siege! 🇵🇸

If you're in #waterloo the secret trove is only a block away from #WaterlooPublicSquare . Frozen dough >>> ice cream for my particular sweet tooth. PLUS you can bake these if you like!

The side of a Crumby Cookie Tough mini-tub. "They say we should eat more raw foods. Cookie Dough counts."

The top of a mini-tub of frozen cookie dough. This variety is titled "One Tart to Rule Them All", and consists of brown sugar cookie dough, maple butter tart filling, Pecans, and pastry bits from another local biz, Just Love Pie (the Sweet and Savoury Pie Co.).

#TIL those "shade trees" on #WaterlooPublicSquare are supposed to be barrel staves! Makes sense, since they're right close to the Barrel Yards.

They look like fish skeletons to me!

i love the part where the *one day* i need dry weather is the one wet day of the entire week. 🙃

local friends, if you could help spread the word fast and often that bookfest has been moved from saturday to sunday this weekend, i would much appreciate it. same place and time, different day.
