Urgent Action! Support Canadian Detainees'  Hunger Strike in 80th Day 
February 12, 2007 
Dear Friends, 
Today is Day 80 of a hunger strike against indefinite detention  and
wretched conditions of detention for Canada's secret trial detainees,  held
over 6 years without charge on secret evidence neither they nor  their
lawyers are allowed to see. International pressure can help. Below are  the
numbers of Canadian embassies and consulates to call. We are writing to  
ask you to call the Canadian consulate in your city or nearest to you  and
register a complaint about the government's refusal to negotiate and  its
willingness to let these men die. 
When calling, please say that you are concerned that the government  of
Canada is refusing to negotiate a solution, and demand: 
1. The government needs to appoint the  Correctional Investigator to
investigate and resolve the crisis at the  Kingston Immigration Holding
Centre (aka Guantanamo North)

2. The  detainees require immediate and ongoing medical care.

3. The men need to  have a supervisor when being escorted through the
facility to prevent  mistreatment by or false accusations from guards.

4. The government needs  to enter into serious negotiations on the men's
other demands with respect to  improved conditions of detention.
5. Secret trials have no place in a democracy.  Abolish the security
certificate process and stop government efforts to  deport these men to
torture in Syria and Egypt. 
We appreciate this. Canada is very concerned about its international  image,
so calls from the U.S. will have a major impact.  Please email [EMAIL 
PROTECTED] 
(mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) 
if you  have done this and let us know what kind of response you are
getting. There  is not much time left for the detainees, Mohammad Mahjoub,
Mahmoud  Jaballah, and Hassan Almrei. For further information:
