Region: GLOBAL
Target: Government of Canada
Background (Preamble):
Ban the LTTE from Canada!
We, the undersigned, urge the government of Canada to declare the liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) as a terrorist organization and ban it from Canada. With the banning of the LTTE from the UK under the provisions of the Terrorism Act of 2000, Toronto, Canada has effectively become the recognized international headquarters of the LTTE, the nerve center of its fund raising activities from which the LTTE masterminds its terrorist campaign in Sri Lanka.
The reign of terror unleashed by the LTTE has to be stopped in order to give peace a chance. A LTTE Killer murdered Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi of India, President Premadasa of Sri Lanka and inflicted a serious eye injury on President Kumaratunga, during an assassination attempt on her. Canada has the responsibility to help eliminate such terrorist threats on democratically elected leaders of fellow Commonwealth countries. India banned the LTTE following the assassination of Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi; Malaysia banned it recognizing it as a terrorist organization. The US banned it in 1997 and the UK in 2001. However, the LTTE still enjoys legitimacy in Canada.
Do not allow the LTTE to use Canada as its International base for terrorist activities. We urge the Canadian government to do what is right and immediately ban the LTTE from Canada.
