From Veteran Ras Haile X who was arrested today at #RemembranceDay ceremony in Toronto for carrying Indigenous Nation Flag. So today is Remembrance day and I went down to old city Hall both as a soldier and also to represent all native soldiers who are never remembered in the ceremony or here in Toronto. I was arrested and detained because I went there and was flying a NATIVE flag I have 3 medals for this country and I served it 5 years and I am not allowed to show support at the remembrance day parade with a flag what is worse is that when I mentioned to the police I was a war veteran I was still hauled off and people were yelling shame shame I felt disrespected highly by the police but it just goes to show I as a veteran am not allowed to carry a native flag but the veterans can carry their own
