Baird arrived in Ramallah from "Occupied Jerusalem" on Jan.18 morning and was expected to leave after his meeting with Riad al-Maliki.
On Jan.17, Palestinian student movements called for protesting against the top Canadian diplomat`s visit.
`We`re here today to say that Baird`s visit in not welcome and we call on him to leave Ramallah immediately,` Essam Abu Bakr, one of the rally-goers said.
`We condemn Canada`s support for Israel`s terrorism and its support for the Israeli occupation in the United Nations,` he added, urging the Canadian government to side rather with the Palestinian people who have been subjected to Israeli state terrorism.
