Hundreds of people have rallied in Vancouver in sympathy with rare protests that are sweeping across China in response to the country’s hardline zero-COVID lockdown policies.
The protesters outside the Vancouver Art Gallery Sunday night also mourned the deaths of at least 10 people in an apartment fire in the Xinjiang region that critics blame on the anti-virus controls that have restricted millions of people to their homes in China.
