Eixo do Muito-Mal: Canadá proíbe a entrada de ativistas americanos pela paz de entrarem no país!!!

De acordo com autoridades do Canadá, os ativistas foram proibidos de entrar no país – onde iriam organizar protestos contra a guerra do Iraque – por seus nomes estarem numa espécie de lista negra do FBI.

Leia o apelo do grupo Global Exchange ( em inglês, óbvio ) e assine a petição online ( se é que vai funcionar ) para cobrar do governo canadense a mudança nessa situação. Assine, faça como fizeram Suzan Sarandon, Noam Chomsky e o grandioso Willie Nelson.

Canada Blocks Peacemakers at Border

Sign our pledge to tell the Canadian Government and the FBI to stop blacklisting peacemakers On October 4, 2007

Global Exchange co-founder Medea Benjamin and Retired Colonel and Diplomat Ann Wright were denied entry to Canada because they have engaged in acts of non-violent civil disobedience against the war in Iraq. Join Susan Sarandon, Alice Walker, Noam Chomsky and hundreds of peacemakers in signing a petition urging the FBI to stop including minor non-violent offenses on a database meant for serious crimes, and the Canadian government to reverse its policy and extend a warm welcome to U.S. peacemakers and other social activists. It is time to stand up for peacemakers and other human rights activists who use the time-honored tradition of engaging in civil disobedience as a way to change unjust policies. Sign the pledge TODAY.
