An
Open Letter to Prime Minister Jean Chrétien
On the Eve of the G8 Summit
June 22, 2002
Dear Mr.
Chrétien,
We are writing you as Canadians, ashamed of what is being done to others
in our name. Millions of people suffer the effects of decisions made
by your government - our government - directly and through participation
in the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the World Bank, and the International
Monetary Fund (IMF). They suffer starvation, homelessness, and disease,
while others profit. We cannot stand for this.

OTTAWA, CANADA
JUNE
26-27, 2002
This coming June 26-27, the executive board of global capitalism is
retreating to the foothills of Alberta, Canada. Jean Chretien, George
W. Bush, Tony Blair and the other so-called leaders of the industrialized
world continue planning for war at home and abroad, surrounded by pristine
wilderness, putting greens, and thousands of police and soldiers.

Defy
The G8 - Come To Kananaskis
June 21 to 28, 2002
The G8 meeting in Kananaskis, Alberta June 26-27, 2002 presents a challenge
to social movements around the world.
This summit of the dominant economies of the world strives to present
the G8 vision of the world as one of development and democracy. In fact,
it represents an agenda of corporate globalization, which results in
the social exclusion of growing millions of people, systemic global
poverty, and the degradation of the natural environment, supported by
escalating international militarism.
