CANADA: WE PROTEST THE VISIT OF KAGAME, BARRISTER CHRISTOPHER BLACK
WE PROTEST.
The people of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, hereby
represented in all their ethnic and cultural diversity by the Amahoro People’s
Congress, the Rwanda National Congress (RNC-Ihuriro) the United Democratic Forces
(FDU-Inkingi) and the Social Party PS-Imberakuri, protest the visit to Toronto
of Paul Kagame, a war criminal of the first order.
WE PROTEST the visit of a man who has murdered hundreds of thousands of
Hutus and Tutsis in Rwanda
since 1990.
WE PROTEST the presence, in Canada, of
a man who has murdered three African heads of state; President Juvenal
Habyarimana of Rwanda,
and President Cyprien Ntaryamira of Burundi in
1994 and President Laurent Desire Kabila, of the Democratic Republic of Congo (Zaire) in
2001.
WE PROTEST the mass murder of over 6 million Rwandans and Congolese
peoples since 1996 in the Democratic Republic of Congo, a mass murder committed
by Paul Kagame, in a continuous war waged on behalf of western interests, and
with their assistance.
WE PROTEST the Canadian government’s permission for the visit and its
shameful support of a man who has crushed any attempt at democracy in Rwanda; of
a man who has nothing but contempt for the human, civil and political rights of
the Rwandan people, of a man who uses cruel tortures and assassination against
those who speak out.
WE PROTEST the protection from prosecution granted him by the
International Criminal Court and the International Criminal Tribunal For
Rwanda, which, though in possession of overwhelming evidence of 20 years of
mass atrocities committed by Kagame in the Great
Lakes region of Africa,
have granted him complete immunity from prosecution, and thereby encouraged his
crimes.
WE PROTEST AND WE DEMAND that Paul Kagame be charged with war crimes by
the ICC, the ICTR and the Canadian government under its claimed universal
jurisdiction under the Criminal Code and that the Prime Minister direct his
Minister of Public Safety and the Commissioner of the Royal Canadian Mounted
Police and Border Services Agency to immediately arrest Paul Kagame on his
entry into the country and direct the Minister of Justice to commence criminal
prosecutions against him forthwith.
WE PROTEST AND WE DEMAND that the Sheraton Hotel or any other hotels in
Canada,
refuse permission for Paul Kagame to stay on their premises and stain their
reputation.
THE RWANDAN AND CONGOLESE PEOPLE PROTEST AND DEMAND ACTION AND JUSTICE.
NO IMMUNITY FOR MASS MURDERERS!
JUSTICE FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE GREAT LAKES!
JUSTICE FOR AFRICA!
NO MORE DICTATORSHIP OF PAUL KAGAME!
NO MORE WARS!
ARREST KAGAME-GIVE US
PEACE!
