#NEW: CanLit Responds has formed a picket line outside of the Giller Prize Gala at the Park Hyatt hotel in Toronto. There will also be a "Boycott Giller" counter-gala
@rdassaly.bsky.socialThe Giller Prize will be handed out this evening.
Nearly 300 Canadian authors and book workers are boycotting the event, accusing the Giller Foundation of artwashing genocide, and demanding it cut ties with Scotiabank, the Azrieli Foundation & Indigo.🧵
