--> Open invitation to our next general assembly (September 8, 6pm)
--> Get involved in the struggle for Status for All!
Solidarity Across Borders (SAB) is inviting all those interested in
fighting for justice and dignity for all migrants to join us at our
next general assembly.
SAB is a Montreal-based network engaged in the struggle for justice
and dignity of immigrants and refugees. We are comprised of migrants,
immigrants, refugees and allies, and come together in support of our
main demands: the regularization of all non-status people (Status for
All!), an end to deportations and detentions, and the abolition of
security certificates.
If you want to learn more about our work and campaigns, meet other SAB
organizers and activists, and participate in our discussions and
debates, join us for a special introduction on September 8 at our
office space. There will be food and drinks, as well as a video about
the SAB March to Ottawa in 2005.
