Vancouver BC – Rob Duffy, Assistant to Canadian MP Libby Davies, has informed the Vancouver 9/11 Truth Society that the petition read in Canadian Parliament last Tuesday regarding the demand for a Canadian Investigation into 9/11 will be handled by none other than Canadian Minister of Public Safety, Stockwell Day. [1]
Although such a document should likely be placed on the desk of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, perhaps some insight was used when the decision was made to forward this homework assignment to Mr. Day instead.
When we look at the credentials of Mr. Day we can see why this decision was made. Indeed, we see that no other Minister should have such a grand understanding of 9/11 than him. Mr. Day understands intelligence. He is a former CSIS agent himself. CSIS showed Canada it’s impressive counter terrorist abilities by uncovering the Air India Bombing plot in 1985 well before it happened. Unfortunately, they failed to pass this information on to the RCMP (he has worked there too) before it was too late.[2]
Mr. Day is also a former evangelical pastor. Therefore, he knows the need for us to all prepare now for the rapture and how a war with Iran will expedite its arrival. Evangelical Minister and fiction novelist Tim LaHaye used this ideology to win over votes for George W. Bush in 2000, just as Jerry Farwell did for Regean 20 years earlier. [3] In addition, Stockwell Day is also a member of the Fraser Institute. Some of the main goals of the Fraser Institute is to privatize Canada’s cherished health care system and pave the way for pharmaceuticals, as well as promote neo-con thought by sponsoring Kare Rove’s and Zbigniew Bbrezinski’s visits to Canada.
We are sure that Mr. Day (I refrain from using his proper title Honorable as I save this for those who are deserving of such a title, not those who were appointed to it) will do no more than dismiss our demands outright. But we are prepared for this – we will converge on Ottawa Sept. 11th 2008 for a massive rally – www.marchonottawa2008.org – and prepare some long term actions, as Parliament reconvenes Sept. 15th.
What possible actions could we take to show our seriousness, and persuade Mr. Day and the Canadian Parliament re-consider the demands of our petition? One option would be to follow in the footsteps of Blair Gadsby, who maintained a courageous 17 day hunger strike outside of the Arizona office of US Senator John McCain. Gadsby’s dedication to truth and justice got his attention of State Senator Karen Johnson, who delivered an emotional presentation to the Arizona State Senate regarding 9/11 Truth[4] (The first time in American history!) Day however, has faced hunger strikers before. Last year three Canadians being held at Kingston Immigration Holding Centre, (without charges) Mohammad Mahjoub, Mahmoud Jaballah, and Hassan Almrei, went on a hunger strike to protest the conditions and reasoning of their stay. While in their 10th week of hunger striking, the press asked Mr. Day what he plans to do about it. He stated that the hunger strike was not legitimate since “[They have a] refrigerator stocked with a variety of juices, soy milk, honey and chocolate sauce.” [5] But then again, Caucasian Hunger strikers at Parliament Hill might have a different effect than Hunger Strikers with Arab names who are sitting in a jail cell where no one can see them.
I myself have little faith in Stockwell Day. I will however, give him a chance while our petition sits on his desk. I will be calling him every day until we get an answer. I encourage all other Canadians – and Americans for that matter – to do the same:

New Democratic Party Deputy House Leader Libby Davies delivers a Parliamentary Petition signed by over 500 Canadians demanding a new 9/11 investigation, in Canada’s House of Commons during Routine Proceedings at 1:10 pm on June 10, 2008We, the undersigned citizens of Canada draw the attention of the House to the following:THAT, scientific and eyewitness evidence shows that the 9/11 Commission Report is a fraudulent document and that those behind the report are consciously or unconsciously guilty of covering up what happened on 9/11/2001. This evidence overwhelmingly supports the conclusion that World Trade Center Towers 1, 2 and 7 were brought down by demolition explosives and that the official theory of the towers collapsing from the airplanes and the ensuing fires is irrefutably false.We further believe that elements within the US government were complicit in the murder of thousands of people on 9/11/2001. This event brought Canada into the so-called “War on Terror,” it changed our domestic and foreign policies for the worse, and it will continue to have negative consequences for us all if we refuse to look at the facts.
THEREFORE, your petitioners call upon Parliament to:
(1) Immediately launch its own investigation into the events of 9/11/2001 on behalf of the 24 Canadian citizens murdered in New York City.
(2) Act lawfully on the findings of its own investigation by helping to pursue the guilty parties in the international courts.
Committed to truth and accountability,

A few months ago various 9/11 Truth activists across Canada got together to compose a Parliamentary Petition demanding an investigation into 9/11. The first 500 signatures were submitted last week, verified, and accepted. This petition was read into Parliament on Tuesday, June the 10th, at approx 10 am EST, by East Vancouver member of Parliament Libby Davies.Our Petition can be found here:http://www.marchonottawa2008.org/index.php?option=com_docman&Itemid=31
The 9/11 attacks not only killed 24 Canadians, but it is also our sole reason for participating in – and now enduring – the War on Terror. Upon the outset of the War in Afghanistan, former US Secretary of State Colin Powell (who will be in Vancouver June 12th) promised Canada a whitepaper linking the September 11th attacks with Osama bin Laden in exchange for our premature participation in the conflict in Afghanistan. This whitepaper never came, yet our troops are still fighting abroad.
To date, the United States of America has yet to convict a single person in a court of law for the crimes of September 11th. Both official US reports, The 9/11 Commission Report and the NIST Federal Building and Fire Safety Investigation of the World Trade Center Disaster created more questions than answers, and cannot be credited as final accounts. Thus, in absence of our whitepaper or any other credible report, Canada must now take it upon itself to investigate the crimes of September 11th, not only for the sake of those in Canada who lost their loved ones, but also to justify our war efforts in Afghanistan, or to bring a cause for an immediate withdrawal.
Ms. Davies, who is the deputy leader of the Federal NDP, has served as an MP in East Vancouver since 1997, easily winning in 4 consecutive elections. We would like to call on all Canadians to please send her an email thanking her for doing what she can to bring the topic of 9/11 into the Canadian Parliament: Davies.L@parl.gc.ca.
Although this petition has already been submitted, we still wish to collect as many signatures as we can to show our true numbers. These yet to be collected signatures will then be added to our current tally, and a total will be read outside of Parliament on September 11th 2008 in support of bringing our demands to fruition. This rally on Parliament Hill, will succeed a March on Ottawa, that will start in Montreal QC, 5 day’s earlier This March on Ottawa will be the first nationally organized 9/11 Truth event here in Canada and we are anticipating on having thousands of marchers and participants rally with us in Ottawa: www.marchonottawa2008.org
