[evoz] Gerd Weih

Dear Friends and members of CASC, Gerd Weih died after a short illness a week ago.He was an active member of CASC for many years. Gerd had a long and fruitful life. He healed many people and brought hundreds of babies into o the world. His commitment to social justice and peace in Latin America took us from the jungles of Chiapas to elections in El Salvador to refugee camps and clandestine meeting with Guatemalan resisters during the war there. Gerd volunteered as a doctor in the Contra war zone in Nicaragua and also picked coffee co-op there. He was active in Tools for Peace and just before his death he ordered and started to bag a fresh roast of CASC’s Cafe Simpatico – work that Tm & I will continue. I am fortunate to be surrounded by dear friends and family who are caring for me at this difficult time. By continuing to work...

You will all by now have seen the heart-rending photograph of three-year-old Aylan Kurdi, a Syrian refugee who drowned off the Turkish coast along with his five-year-old brother Galib and mother Rehan trying to escape their war-torn country.

But this is not just another shameful tale from Fortress Europe, of yet another needless death amongst the thousands this year who have lost their lives trying cross the Mediterranean on crowded dinghies or frozen in the back of trucks or asphyxiated in airplane cargo holds.

This is a Canadian shame as well.

Aylan’s family was trying to enter Canada, sponsored by their aunt in Vancouver. But in June, Harper’s vicious, anti-immigrant government rejected their application.
