Petition Text

Petition to the House of Commons in Parliament assembled

Whereas:

• The Cuban people are facing severe economic hardship, including shortages of food, medicine, and reliable energy;

• Canada maintains longstanding diplomatic and people-to-people ties with Cuba;

• The Government of Canada has consistently opposed broad economic sanctions that negatively impact civilian populations;

• There is concern that state-controlled systems in Cuba can divert resources away from those most in need; and

• Canadians support humanitarian assistance that reaches people directly and is delivered transparently and accountably.

We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to:

1. Increase humanitarian assistance directed specifically to the Cuban people, delivered through independent, non-governmental, and multilateral organizations with strong accountability mechanisms;

2. Prioritize support for food security, medical supplies, and decentralized energy solutions (including community-based and renewable systems) that reduce reliance on centralized state control;

3. Expand people-to-people engagement, including travel, cultural exchange, and remittances, in ways that directly benefit Cuban citizens and small independent businesses;

4. Ensure that any Canadian assistance or economic engagement includes clear safeguards, transparency measures, and reporting to prevent diversion through state-controlled entities; and

5. Continue to advocate internationally for approaches that support civilian populations without entrenching authoritarian governance structures.
