WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT: As Donald Trump threatens 'to 'take over' Cuba and deploy a massive US aircraft carrier within 100 yards of its shoreline, Cubans are suffering an increasingly dire humanitarian crisis. The U.S. oil blockade has been deemed a clear violation of international law, by UN experts.

While other courageous leaders across Latin America condemn these threats to Cuban sovereignty and the peace and security of the Cuban people, Canada has remained silent.

If you believe Canada must put into practice its stated commitment to human rights, solidarity, sovereignty and territorial integrity, we must take immediate steps to ensure the Cuban people have access to the essential fuel and vital humanitarian aid needed to live their lives with dignity.

Add your name now and demand the Government of Canada stand up for the sovereignty, integrity, and humanity of the Cuban people.
