In an emailed statement to National Observer, Shopify declined to comment on the protest's accusations or demands, but clarified that use of its online platform is not an endorsement of Breitbart News. Some of Breitbart's products include t-shirts that tell foreigners to get in line, support Trump's proposed U.S.-Mexico border, and label the wearers as border patrol. The company's website says it supports free speech and will allow a merchant to use its platform, provided its products are legal in the jurisdiction where it operates. Shopify is a platform that provides software to help businesses sell their products.... Shopify does not endorse, fund or advertise with Breitbart. Shopify supports the rights of citizens to engage in free speech and peaceful protest, Samantha Tam, a member of Shopify's press team, told National Observer. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
