Playing Games with Real Lives So that we never have to say ‘May the odds be ever in your favour' -­‐ Bishop Dennis Drainville While young people all over the continent have their noses buried in The Hunger Games, the Harper Government is playing some games of its own-with real live people. The Noella Project, the refugee outreach project of the Anglican Cathedral of Quebec, and The Anglican Diocese of Quebec invite all concerned citizens (permanent residents included) and media to a candlelight vigil on Thursday April 26 to protest against Bill C-31, which will undermine our tradition of welcoming the stranger and giving victims of persecution a chance to live in peace. C-31 will give one government minister the power to: Imprison refugees, including children, for one year Remove permanent residence from refugees, with no appeal Prevent appeals by deciding a country is "safe"Stop refugees from bringing their families for seven yearsDeprive refugees from appealing life and death decisionsFurther limit access to the Canadian refugee system (Nelson Mandela and Alexander Solzhenitsyn would not have qualified) Speakers will include Bishop Dennis Drainville, Diocese of Quebec; Mitchell Goldberg, Canadian Assoc. of Refugee Lawyers; Robert McBryde, Amnesty International, Andrée Juneau, Service d'accueil aux refugiés de Québec. Plus: Refugee stories, music. When: Thursday April 26, 2012, 7 pm.Where: In front of the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, 31 Rue des Jardins, Quebec. For more information, call Rev.
