No to NATO No to WAR!
January 21, 2020 @ 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm
Every month this year, the Canadian Voice of Women for Peace (VOW) will be holding a peace vigil outside the NATO Association of Canada headquarters in downtown Toronto (48 Yonge St. corner with Wellington St.). Now after the 70th anniversary of this male-dominated military alliance and Cold War relic that threatens our security with weapons and war, is time to stand up! NATO puts intense pressure on the Canadian government to increase military spending and is preventing Canada from joining the UN Treaty to Prohibit Nuclear Weapons. VOW is calling for the Canadian government to withdraw from NATO and work through the United Nations on disarmament and the Sustainable Development Goals that will bring genuine human security. No to NATO No to War; yes to peace, nonviolence and sustainability! Organized by the Canadian Voice of Women for Peace (VOW: www.vowpeace.org Afterward join us for Dinner, and Pints for Peace at District Eatery, 303 King st.)
