49th day Commemoration Peace Protest March and Prayer Service in honour of Pawo Lobga Rangzen Wednesday August 19, 2026

Today, the 5th Week Prayer (Monlam) is being held at Tibetan Canadian Culture Centre in memory of Powo Lobga Rangzen, who self-immolated in front of the United Nations Headquarters in New York on July 2, 2026, as a profound act of sacrifice for the cause of Tibet.

Rain or shine, Tibetans will never stop standing up for justice, freedom, and the truth.
United, Tibetans will never be defeated. Tibetan voices can never be silenced.

Today, despite the pouring rain, our Board stood shoulder to shoulder with the Toronto public on the Global Day of Action to honour the memory of Martyr Lobga Rangzen and all the brave Tibetans who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the cause of Tibet.
Their courage continues to inspire us. Their voices live on through ours.
