Petition Text
Petition to the Government of Canada
Whereas:
• Canada and Cuba have maintained unbroken diplomatic and cultural ties for over eighty years, with Canadian tourists accounting for over one third of the island's international visitors each year;
• The United States of America has maintained a unilateral economic blockade of Cuba since 1960, condemned by international observers and legal experts as a form of collective punishment; and
• For thirty-three consecutive years, Canada has voted in support of the annual resolution of the United Nations General Assembly calling for an end to the United States embargo against Cuba.
We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to:
1. Deepen and defend economic and cultural exchanges between Canada and Cuba in the face of United States aggression;
2. Enforce the Foreign Extraterritorial Measures Act, to protect Canadian corporations who do business in Cuba against United States sanctions;
3. Lift the Government of Canada’s advisory against non-essential travel to Cuba and expand opportunities for tourism and trade; and
4. Reaffirm Canada’s historic opposition to the United States embargo against Cuba at the United Nations and support the annual resolution on the Necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial embargo.
