In 2014 after the ISIS attacks on the Nineveh plains, a rally on behalf of Assyrian Genocide recognition was organized by Ramsin Ishaq in Windsor, Ontario at the City Hall. Over 100 attendants, mostly Assyrian Christians, came out to rally the Canadian government to create an Assyrian State, through the UN. The rally received the support of Brian Masse of the NDP who spoke briefly, as well as a priest from the local Greek Orthodox Church.[8][9]
