Listen to the Voices--Letter to Alexa McDonough, NDP leader
 

Women assembled for A Time to Vision  -  A Time to Sing  at The United Church of Canada Five Oaks Centre, Paris, Ontario on October 26,27,28th, whose signatures are attached, are singing and speaking with voices of dissent in solidarity with the voices expressed in the accompanying document from the International Women’s Tribune Centre, regarding the current military response in Afghanistan to the terrorist action of September 11, 2001.
 

Ms. Mcdonough, we unanimously send our support of the stance that you have consistently taken since September 11th regarding the necessity to act under the jurisdiction of the United Nations; to seek justice through an international court and to avoid responding with violent military action which history has proven simply perpetuates violence and does not lead to just solutions.

Writing on behalf of the group whose individual signatures are attached, I am,

Margaret E. Vannest
