MEMO


TO:    CCD Council, Human Rights Committee, Latimer Watch List,
       Member Offices

FROM:  Mel Graham, CCD Communications Officer

DATE:  December 1, 1997

RE:    Call for Appeal of Latimer Sentence
_________________________________________________________________


The CCD Human Rights Committee has met earlier this afternoon by conference call and concluded that given the sentence Latimer has received--he could do as little as 8 months in jail with good behaviour--, it is imperative that the Crown appeal the decision to the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal.  It would appear that public opinion has impacted on this latest development to a considerable extent, so we must ensure that the Attorney General understands our alarm at this decision of the court and that an appeal is absolutely imperative.  

Please contact Hon. John Nilson, the Attourney General of Saskatchewan in any one or more of the following ways:

30 Legislative Building, 
Regina, Saskatchewan S4S 0B3  

telephone: (306) 787-5353

by fax:  (306) 787-1232

e-mail:  justice.min@sk.sympatico.ca


Make your feelings known, write, fax or phone the Minister's office and urge appeal of Latimer's sentence.  Our Voices must be heard.  This sentence cannot go unchallenged.  It undermines our fundamental human rights.
