68% Informative

Some 40 participants will make their way via Jasper to Edmonton on Saturday around 7 p.m. for a peace vigil.

At issue is the decline of Canada ’s role as a peacekeeper, organizer Keith Wyton says.

Participants expect to plead for a small fraction of the amount of money the federal government spends on the military.

People who want to support the Peace Train’s goal of asking the Canadian government to establish and fund a Centre of Excellence for Peace and Justice can do so by signing a petition.

People can also sign a paper petition at the vigils and rally at the rallies.
