Various groups across the country are organizing the formation of a human “Freedom Chain” stretching from coast to coast beginning March 5 to urge for the upholding of charter rights and freedoms in Canada.

The plan is for the Freedom Chain to reach across the entirety of the country along the Trans-Canada Highway, which spans 7,476 km, beginning in Victoria, British Columbia, and extending to St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador.
