CC4FB - We want to take this
opportunity to thank you for expressing an
ongoing interest in the events in Burma and
to invite you to attend our first Community
Forum. A Core Group of dedicated volunteers
has worked diligently to help organize
several successful events since our
inception, which you no doubt attended or
read about. We have attempted to keep you
advised of events through emails of news
coming
out of Burma and elsewhere, as well as
keeping you updated through our website:
www.canadiancampaignforfreeburma.org
.
The main theme for the afternoon will be a
discussion of our "Spring Campaign". We are
planning on organizing a Pan Canadian and
Global Event as a 6 month commemoration of
the marches and protests this past
September. Our goal is to put Burma back on
the front burner where it belongs. The
working title is: DON'T FORGET BURMA.
One idea we are considering as part of the
Spring Campaign is a Global Marathon as part
of a worldwide protest of the Olympics in
China. We will try to co-ordinate our
actions with a rumoured spring march by the
monks in Burma.
The Community Forum will be an opportunity
for us to give you an update on other areas
we have been working in, where we are going,
ways that you can help and groups you can
join as outlined in our Mission Statement.
Please contact either

There's lots to do and we need your ideas
and bodies to help us do it all!
