Hundreds marched silently to honor Nooran Rezayi and demand justice after the unarmed teen was shot, with calls for a public inquiry gaining momentum.
- On Saturday, hundreds of family members, friends and residents joined a peaceful, silent march in Longueuil to honour 15-year-old Nooran Rezayi, who was shot and killed by a Longueuil police officer six days earlier.

- Organizers and community members rallied behind Rezayi's family and urged transparency, with Nazar Saaty saying, `People need to be kept in the loop regularly`.
- Longueuil police and Quebec Public Safety Minister Ian Lafrenière urged calm on Friday, while about a dozen police in riot gear formed a line after the march and the officer involved was placed on indefinite sick leave.
