Mayors for Peace Campaign Re-Launched

On September 21 – United Nations International Day of Peace – Peace Quest officially re-launched its bid to persuade John Morgan, Mayor of the Cape Breton Regional Municipality (CBRM), to join the international Mayors for Peace campaign for a world without nuclear weapons. At a public information session held at Cape Breton University, a petition was opened for signature, noting that “over 1,700 towns and cities from 122 countries, including 57 municipalities across Canada” have so joined ‘Mayors for Peace,’ and urging Mayor Morgan and CBRM to lend their voice to this fast-growing “global chorus of protest against the obscenity and waste of nuclear weapons and the growing threat of their proliferation and use in the 21st Century.”
