On this day 78 years ago the US dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima resulting in 100,000 dead. Ottawa devoted significant resources to researching atomic weapons, helped merge US & UK nuclear weapons programs & provided uranium. 🇨🇦 officials praised the atomic bombing #CFPhistory

We condemn the shipment of cluster munitions to Ukraine by the US. Cluster bombs are known to cause unintended civilian deaths, injuries and widespread soil contamination. We add our voice to the Cluster Munition Coalition and Mines Action Canada to express our outrage.

Compte tenu de la toxicité de ces matériaux, cette décision est hautement irresponsable !

[Conseil de la paix NB Peace Council @PaixNBPeace]

Nous condamnons sans équivoque l'expédition d'obus à l'uranium appauvri vers l'Ukraine par le Royaume-Uni. Cela repr��sente une escalade du conflit par un pays occidental, et poussera sans aucun doute la Russie à réagir.

[Conseil de la paix NB Peace Council @PaixNBPeace]

We unequivocally condemn the shipment of depleted uranium shells to Ukraine by the UK. This represents an escalation of the conflict by a Western country, and will undoubtedly push Russia to react. Given how toxic these materials are, this move is highly irresponsible!

[Conseil de la paix NB Peace Council @PaixNBPeace]

We call on the Canadian government to be a voice for peace, to work diligently towards a negotiated settlement immediately before it’s too late.

February 24th marked one year since the Russian invasion of Ukraine. While this date is a milestone in the hostilities between the two countries, the conflict has deeper roots that go back to 2014, and beyond.

In Canada, despite the cost of supporting Ukraine surpassing $2 billion, the political class is in lockstep with the view that we must continue to arm Ukraine, and let Ukraine fight Russia “to the last Ukrainian.”
