Nelson downtown.
Prime Minister -in-waiting Paul Martin will be in Vancouver December 4th for 
a gala $290/plate fundraiser. StopWar.ca will be organizing a welcome of our 
own, with a picket outside the Sheraton Wall Centre to oppose Canada's 
participation in, or support for, the occupations of Iraq, Palestine and 
Afghanistan, and the National Missile Defense program known as "Star Wars 
II".

PICKET Daniel Pipes, Hillel, and Blatant Racism at these two events...

Gather at these two locations, 30 minutes prior to start time, to protest 
Daniel Pipes. He has been widely condemned by the American academic 
community for his attempts to shut down academic discourse, as well as 
reviled for his blatantly racist positions (such as calling Muslims 
“potential killers”).

GALA “An Enchanted Evening at Sea” Vancouver Hillel Foundation has DR. 
DANIEL PIPES as the key note speaker at their 4th annual gala on Sunday
