in the New Era of War and Occupation

  St.

 

Since 2001 all of the different governments of Canada have
actively participated in the New Era of Imperialist War and Occupation that has
caused immense killing and destruction around the world. The recent
participation of the government of Canada
in the war and bombing against Libya
demonstrates very clearly why Canada
needs an antiwar government and why the next parliament and government must end
Canada's
participation in the imperialist war drive. 

 

>> What does this latest Federal Election in Canada mean for
the antiwar movement?

>> Why does Canada need an antiwar government?

 

Screening 1 hour of documentary and news clips followed by
speaker and discussion.
