Following a 15-minute moment of silence to honor the victims of the Novi Sad train station tragedy, organizers invited attendees to join another rally next weekend.
For the next event, organizers anticipate a significantly larger turnout, citing the limited time for organizing and publicizing the previous day’s protest, which also coincided with Saint Sava celebrations held in two Serbian Orthodox churches in Vancouver.
