Nuclear Weapons Ban Treaty – Citizen Signing Ceremony
September 20, 2017 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Canada won’t sign the International Nuclear Weapons Ban Treaty – – but we can!
Finalized in July and supported by 122 UN member states, the UN Nuclear Ban Treaty is a landmark international agreement that outlaws the worst weapons of mass destruction and moves toward their elimination. It opens for signatures on Wednesday September 20th.
Join PeaceQuest and concerned local residents on Wednesday September 20th at 11am at the corner of University and Union to sign a giant copy of the treaty yourself.
Similar events are taking place across Canada – you can check out the full list at Ceasefire.ca
Participate in the national social media campaign! Call on others to sign by sharing a photo of yourself promoting the #bannukes campaign and invite them to sign the treaty online here.
