Hello everyone,
BPW Canada has just passed an emergency resolution at the AGM on Saturday to support the Afghan Women.
The Denial of Women’s Rights in Afghanistan
This Emergency Resolution was created by Anne Knicley, Nancy Broerse and Jocelyne Desautels of BPW Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada.
The Canadian government has already said there would be assistance sent to Afghanistan.
We will accept many refugees from Afghanistan. (CBC News and the Toronto Star newspaper)
