robin long's appeal denied: call stockwell day immediately

Sorry for the delay, I was away from my computer.

Today, July 14, in Vancouver, US Iraq War resister Robin Long was told that his appeal to have his deportation order stayed was denied.

Please email and/or phone Minister of Public Safety Stockwell Day, and ask him to immediately stop the deportation of US Iraq war resister Robin Long.

Ask Mr Day why the federal government is refusing to respect the will of the Canadian people and the Parliament of Canada, which have called for war resisters to stay in Canada, and demanded that deportation proceedings against them cease.

In a recent Angus Reid poll, almost two-thirds of Canadians said they want US war resisters to be allowed to stay in Canada. Demand to know why the Harper government is unwilling to be accountable to Canadians.

I'll post information on Robin's status and emergency actions as soon as I get it (which is probably the same time you get it).

Robin may be deported as early as tomorrow.
