Canada must maintain full economic relations with Cuba, including deliveries of oil and food


Letter writing campaign / Parliamentary Petition

The U.S. government is seeking to starve Cuba into submission and ‘regime change’. The Canadian government should denounce U.S. economic warfare (“sanctions”) towards Cuba, and maintain full economic relations with the tiny island country, including providing oil, food, and medicine immediately.

Rights Action urges folks to sign both, and to re-share this information with families, friends and networks.

In Davos, Switzerland, Prime Minister Mark Carney recently said countries must band together to stand up to U.S. domination.

Was the Prime Minister narrowly complaining about U.S. aggression against Canada? Or was the Prime Minister taking an actual stand in favor of international law and a rules-based global order?

Rights Action urges the Canadian government to reject the cruel and harmful actions by the U.S. government to strangle and starve Cuba into ‘regime change’, increasing its economic warfare ("sanctions") against countries, corporations or people that respect international law and maintain full relations with Cuba.

Rights Action adds our voice to those calling on Canada to do the right thing for Canada, for Cuba and for all nations.
