Our Way Home Reunion Weekend - celebrates war resisters - Canada

We invite you to participate in the Our Way Home National Reunion Weekend. This event will mark the courageous legacy and honour the contribution made to Canadian life by the US war resisters who came to Canada during the Vietnam War. The Our Way Home Reunion will also honour the courage of those resisting current US militarism by seeking safe haven in Canada now, during the US war in Iraq. The Our Way Home Reunion will honour the thousands of Canadians who helped them resettle in this country, both then and now.

Our Way Home Reunion will be held from July 6th to 9th, 2006, and include workshops, keynote presentations, panel-discussions, on-stage theatre performances, a film festival and a major peace concert.

This event will provide an opportunity for those who came to canada as war resisters during the vietnam war to be reunited with those who assisted them in Canada.
