Tell Stephen Harper and Diane Finley: Don’t Deport Hinzman Family!

U.S. Iraq War resister Jeremy Hinzman and his wife and two children have
been ordered to leave Canada by September 23rd.

In spite of Hinzman¹s four and a half years living, working and raising a
family in Canada, the Harper government plans to deport him to the United
States where he will likely face a court martial and a potential military
jail sentence and felony conviction. This flies in the face of democracy and
the will of Canadians: Parliament passed a motion in support of war
resisters June 3rd, 82% of Canadians oppose the Iraq war (Strategic Counsel
poll), and 64% of Canadians support war resisters (Angus Reid poll).

The Conservative Government should:
- respect Parliament and implement the June 3rd motion in support of war
resisters staying in Canada
- 82% of Canadians oppose the Iraq war
- 64% of Canadians in an Angus Reid national poll want war resisters to stay
in Canada
- Jeremy Hinzman and his family have lived and worked here for over 4 years
and made a real contribution; they should not be deported because they
oppose the Iraq war
