Indigenous people are planning events, rallies, boycotts and blockades all across Canada on Friday in what's gearing up to be the biggest national First Nations protest since Idle More More.

It's called #ShutDownCanada, and it's described as a callout "for communities across Canada to blockade their local railway, port or highway" on Friday, Feb. 13.

"Don't buy, don't fly, no work and keep the kids home from school. A diversity of tactics is highly recommended!" the national Facebook event page, hosted by In Solidarity with all Land Defenders, reads.

The events aim to tackle a wide variety of issues -- the mass incarceration of indigenous people, major resource extraction projects on unceded indigenous lands and the more than 2,000 missing and murdered indigenous women, to name a few.

"Make no mistake that systemic racism and structural violence are connected to the needs of this illegal colonial state to maintain control of the land for exploitation. That is why we must call attention to these issues at the same time," the Facebook page reads. "It's all connected."

Toronto is planning a "peaceful & calm assembly with the purpose of raising public awareness and sharing knowledge with passersby" in Yonge and Dundas Square.

In Vancouver, there are plans to block Port Metro Vancouver locations all across the lower mainland.

Near Sarnia, Ont,, Walpole Island First Nation members are planning to slow down traffic and inform passing motorists about missing and murdered indigenous women.

In Prince George, B.C., organizers are protesting at City Hall and asking supporters to put their wallets away.

"To do this we need to not buy gas, don't go shopping, in all possible cases don't go to work. Show the cronies in Ottawa that we are serious and things need to change now."

Most local event pages on Facebook have hundreds of people vowing to attend, and the national page boasts more than 6,500 participants.
