Will Dick Cheney be Arrested in Canada on War Crime Charges?

Dick Cheney to Visit Toronto October 31, 2013


Time for the law to step in–

Join the campaign to have Dick Cheney either barred from Canada or arrested and prosecuted if he enters.

Lawyers against the War and the Canadian Centre for International Justice succeeded before the UN Committee against Torture in 2012.

Let’s work together to enforce the CAT recommendations"

LAW plans, with your help, to take the following actions:

1. Send a letter to Canadian authorities (War Crimes investigation unit; Prime Minister, Ministers of Justice, Immigration, Foreign Affairs, opposition party critics of those departments) outlining Canada duty to either prevent Cheney from entering Canada or arrest and prosecute him on arrival.

2. Prepare a press release stating our intention to call on Canadian authorities to comply with the law.

3. Prepare a Cheney fact sheet regarding his authorization of torture with accompanying poster and/or video.

4. Identify the Toronto hosts and their sponsors and ask them to withdraw the invitation5.

5. Write to Mr. Cheney advising him that, being a torture suspect, he is person non grata in Canada and that if he enters.

6. Ensure that Canada complies with the June 2012 recommendations of the United Nations Committee against Torture to:

a. arrest and prosecute Dick Cheney—as a foreign national suspected of torture—on his arrival in Canada; and,

b. ensure ‘direct access’ by all persons to invoke universal jurisdiction against foreign torture suspects present in Canada.

YOUR HELP IS NEEDED. PLEASE GET IN TOUCH."

1. I will actually live up to every promise ever made if this happens.

I'll quit smoking, I'll workout more, quit drinking, do yoga, mow the lawn, eat healthy - pretty much everything I don't want to do, if Cheney is arrested and convicted. Hell, I'll do it just for the arrest

2. I think this should be kept hush hush

Then when he gets to Canada...Surprise!

5. Yes, that's good advice.

4. Splitting the Sky who attempted to arrest bush in canada is now dead

from a fall supposedly..in march. Get to close to the truth or justice and that tends to happen these days. If you don't know about Splitting the Sky and his activism, then I suggest a little research. Cheney should be behind bars for more than just war crimes.
