• Withholding Hope: Canadian Red Tape and the Fight to Get AIDS Medicine to Africa
  University of Toronto

Richard Elliott, Executive Director of the Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network, will be discussing why Canada is unable to export this much-needed medication; and Lois Chingandu, Executive Director of SAfAIDS, and Veronica Ngwerume-Kanyongo, Director and co-founder of Seke Rural Home-Based Care, will be discussing the impacts on AIDS-affected areas in southern Africa.

  
  The discussion will be followed by a letter-writing campaign to Members of Parliament, urging them to take action today.
