We stopped her deportation once before. Is history always doomed to repeat itself? War Resister Kim Rivera to be deported from Canada on Sept. 20:
According to Michelle Robidoux, a spokesperson for the War Resisters Support Campaign (WRSC), “(Kim) faces a court martial and jail sentence, which, based on what other people have gotten, is a harsh jail sentence,” Robidoux said. “She will be separated from her family. Her husband suffers from a disability and he’s going to have four kids on his hands.”
I’ll be keeping an eye on the War Resisters Support Campaign to see how to help again as well as watching Amnesty International’s blog on Canadian human rights issues. Watch for more postings as the calls for support develop.
