The 2010 Canada anti-prorogation protests took place mostly on January 23, 2010, in over 60 cities and towns in Canada, as well as internationally in New York City, San Francisco, Dallas, London, Oman, Beijing, Brussels, Amsterdam, The Hague and Costa Rica, to protest the prorogation of the 40th Canadian Parliament by Governor General of Canada Michaëlle Jean on the constitutional advice of Prime Minister of Canada Stephen Harper. The protests and rallies attracted more than 25,000 participants, including many who had joined a group on Facebook, known as the "Canadians Against Proroguing Parliament" (CAPP). On January 20, close to 35 protesters had assembled when Harper visited the C.D. Howe Institute in Toronto. At the rallies in Ottawa and Toronto, Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff, NDP leader Jack Layton, Green Party leader Elizabeth May, and Member of Parliament Bob Rae spoke against the prorogation.
