By Canadian Boat to Gaza - November 2, 2011
The Canadian ship Tahrir and the Irish ship Saoirse have successfully reached international waters, marking the start of the Freedom Waves to Gaza campaign..."[We] hope to reach the shores of Gaza in a matter of days. Among the significant obstacles in our way are Israel's military and the complicity of the Harper government, but we have the wind of public opinion at our back and in our sails, which strengthens our resolve and determination to challenge the illegal blockade of Gaza's 1.5 million inhabitants."
