MAWO’s first monthly demonstration of 2008 will set
the tone for a new year of struggle and growth. The
growing era of war and occupation we live in will not
slow down for winter and so we must continue to work
towards building an effective antiwar movement here
in Canada, demanding self-determination for all
oppressed nations.
