No Fighter Jets! Nov. 22

PICKET MP FILOMENA TASSI’S OFFICE!

NO NEW FIGHTER JETS!

NO NEW WARSHIPS!

NOT TO NATO!

November 22 marks the date on which the Canadian Parliament reconvenes. In its coming session, Parliament is set to buy new fighter jets (sticker price $19b. [lifetime cost $77b.]) and new warships (sticker price $82b. [lifetime cost $286b.]) These largest procurements in Canadian history effectively mean that Canada won’t be able to afford the costs to transform to a green economy or adequately fund social programs, infrastructure renewal, or restitution to native peoples.

 

Nov. 22 will mark the beginning of a week of cross-Canada protests against the proposed procurements of these new weapons, which are NOT designed to protect the territory of Canada, but rather to carry out Canada’s commitment under NATO to wage aggressive wars on other countries.

 

We say: NO NEW FIGHTER JETS! NO NEW WARSHIPS! NO TO NATO!
