A message from the War Resisters Support Campaign

Across the country, supporters of U.S. Iraq War resisters have been working hard to ensure that the Liberal government acts quickly to resolve their cases and let them stay. Your letters, emails and phone calls have had a real impact – but we aren't there yet.

The Federal Court has given the government a deadline of September 16th to indicate whether the litigation against U.S. Iraq war resisters that was initiated under Harper will continue, or whether the Liberal government will stop pursuing Harper's policies on this issue.

War resisters need your help – here are two important things you can do right now:



1. Contact Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to state your support for U.S. Iraq War resisters, and to ask that the issue be positively resolved NOW. The message can be brief, underlining that every day of delay continues the hardship imposed on these courageous conscientious objectors to the Iraq War by the previous Harper government.
