We need to know this."All nuclear weapon states explode their bombs on unconsenting nations. No nuclear state tests bombs on its own lands and peoples. Americans don't set off nuclear weapons in Santa Barbara or Washington; they bomb the Western Shoshone Nation."

On behalf of Nova Scotia Voice of Women for Peace, I took the opportunity yesterday to personally give Jagmeet Singh, leader of the Federal NDP, a peace poppy and a handwritten letter as well as the No Fighter Jets letter with100 signatures of notable Canadians. He was in Halifax to promote the NDP candidates in the provincial election. He may or may not be aware that the NDP Defence Critic, Randall Garrison, is defending Canada's need for these fighter jets. We are urging all political parties to reject this procurement.Here is the link to the No Fighter Jets letter. If you haven't signed it yet, please do, and share it with others. Below is the text of what I wrote.https://actionnetwork.org/letters/fighterjetsAugust 11, 2021To: Jagmeet Singh Leader, NDPFrom: NS Voice of Women for Peace Thank you for visiting our beautiful province. As you know the IPCC Report foretells environmental catastrophe if we don’t bring our greenhouse gas emissions to zero. How can we do that if we lock ourselves into a contract to buy 88 fighter jets that spew immense amounts of greenhouse bases from their specialized fuels? We can’t protect our earth—its people, plants, animals, and our life support systems—with bombs and weapons. In fact, we will destroy it. According to a recent NANOS poll, the majority of Canadians want our country’s role in the world to be a peacekeeper and mediator, not a war fighter. The path of the Warrior is often thought of as the ability to destroy; however, the true path of the Warrior is to protect. We urge the NDP to join the 100 notable Canadians and oppose the purchase of these fighter jets. Sandy Greenberg peace@nsvow.org For NSVOW ... MoreLess
