> MESSAGE FROM FIDEL TO THE DEMONSTRATORS IN QUÉBEC
>
> We have just watched on television the images of the brutal manner with
> which the authorities of Canada are repressing the peaceful demonstrations
> of those that protest against the crime attempted to be committed against
> the political and economic rights of the peoples of Latin America and the
> Caribbean in Quebec. It is a shame!
>
> I wish to express on behalf of the people of Cuba our sympathy and
> admiration for the brave and heroic behaviour of those that struggle there
> for such a just cause.
>
> Governments that deceive the world by calling themselves defenders of
human
> rights treat their own people in such a way. In this manner they pretend
to
> discharge their guilt for the millions of children, women, adults and
> elderly in the world that, being able to be saved, die every year of
disease
> and hunger. Yet they will not be able to sustain the unfair order they
have
> imposed upon human kind.
>
> We convey our fullest solidarity. Cuba supports you, embraces you and
greets
> you with fraternity,
