Canada must maintain full economic relations with Cuba, including deliveries of oil and food
Letter writing campaign / Parliamentary Petition
The U.S. government is seeking to starve Cuba into submission and ‘regime change’. The Canadian government should denounce U.S. economic warfare (“sanctions”) towards Cuba, and maintain full economic relations with the tiny island country, including providing oil, food, and medicine immediately.

Petition to Canadian parliament
Rights Action urges folks to sign both, and to re-share this information with families, friends and networks.
In Davos, Switzerland, Prime Minister Mark Carney recently said countries must band together to stand up to U.S. domination.
