Together, we can send a powerful message to our leaders and the world - That pease is not a dream but an achievable reality!
The goal of the On to Ottawa Peace Caravan is to build a broad-based country-wide movement to demand that the Canadian government:
- Stop spending billions of dollars on the military and development of fossil fuels that massively contribute to the runaway climate crisis.
- Use taxpayers’ money to address urgent social needs such as housing, health, childcare, education, immigrants and refugees.
- Act on the Truth and Reconciliation’s 94 Calls to Action and the 2SMMIWG 231 Calls for Justice.
- Join calls supporting ceasefires, UNRWA and support for the International Court of Justice; and initiate diplomatic and non-violence dialogue to end world conflicts.
