Congratulations from the "Canadian Boat to Gaza"

Thank you all!

We are writing to congratulate and thank you for what the Canadian Boat to Gaza has achieved to date.

This pan-Canadian collective effort now has the endorsement of approximately 100 organizations and many more individuals. With organizing taking place in communities right across the country, we have now reached one third of our $300,000 fundraising target. Along the way we have attracted a lot of important media attention to the siege of Gaza.

We are coordinating with international boat projects to sail together. The current target for "Freedom Flotilla 2" is December 2010, but many factors influence this decision and we will keep you updated about the developments.

Meanwhile our work continues locally. Flotilla activist Kevin Neish will be embarking on a cross-Canada speaking tour -- stay tuned for an event near you. Public awareness and media exposure are central to the Canadian Boat to Gaza since reaching Gaza by sea is but a part of our aim.

We are counting on your continued support - only together can we achieve our ultimate goal of justice and freedom for all Palestinians in Gaza and elsewhere.

The Canadian Boat to Gaza has been the target of slurs and misinformation— some facts (as opposed to rhetoric) about our campaign may interest open-minded readers. [read here]

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
