Still absolutely livid that there is a company in Brampton selling vehicles to ICE.
Hopefully a rogue employee of Roshel could accidentally "make a few mistakes" during assembly

@rachelgilmore.bsky.social your work indicates Roshel fulfilled it’s only contract with ICE. This piece seems to refer to future purchases?
I know you didn’t find any such thing when you did your research, but ICE isn’t exactly known for truth telling.

Public pressure from Canadians had a BC billionaire reverse course on selling a warehouse that was to be used as the same sort of facility in Virginia. Unfortunately, our government supports sales of armoured vehicles by Roshel to be used by ICE and that's wrong on every level. Saudi Arabia too.

- It’s not hard to organize a small protest in Canada.
There are other specific things that Canadians can do. And we’re going to have to keep pushing this.
But right now the Number 1 target is Roshel and the weapons loophole.

Contact them to see if there will be another one.
- If you are nowhere near Roshel’s facility, do a search for other anti-ICE protests in Canada. There were a few over the weekend.

There are already multiple petitions re: Roshel (like 5) and the issue of closing the loophole on weapons sales is up in the House of Commons on the 17th.
But we still need an investigation into all the contracts, which a parliamentary committee can do.
