REMEMBERING SREBRENICA

Canada's Bosnian community yesterday marked the fifteenth anniversary of the Srebrenica massacre, the worst act of violence in Europe since the Second World War. We'll hear how they remembered the victims and what they're doing to get the Canadian government to recognize the massacre of over 8-thousand men and boys, as genocide.

I want to say to all of you that we remember, and that we must remember, always. We must remember,not in a spirit of vengeance, but in a spirit of humanity and of justice. The courts cannot bring back the dead. But human justice can bring balm to the wounds.

Thanks to everyone who took part in organizing and attending any of the three menifestations commemorating the Srebrenica Genocide. Thanks Radio Canada International for covering the story. I hope your next story is about Canada passing a resolution confirming Genocide in Srebrenica. Thanks.
