Editor:
To Canmore residents, it is time to add your voice to the hundreds of thousands of Canadians who are calling for a cease fire in Gaza.
The death toll continues to climb and the reports at the time of writing this are reaching 10,000 innocent civilians killed by Israeli bombing. Children making up almost 50 per cent of the casualties.
The people are suffering. They have no food. They have no water. The have no electricity. They have no medical supplies.
We need you, to encourage your own community to stand up against the violence that we are witnessing on a daily basis.
Encourage everyone to sign petition e-4649 which is on track to make history as the most signed e-petition. Which demands the Canadian government call for an immediate cease fire and for the delivery of much needed aid.

Encourage them to write letters to our government officials.
Hold a pro-Palestine rally.
These seemingly small acts can make a huge difference. The Palestinian people are running out of time.
Please help.
Phillip Nugent,
Canmore
