Petition to the House of Commons in Parliament assembled
- Canada recommended during the United Nations Human Rights Council to improve transparency and due process upon arrest and pre-trial, as well as during sentencing hearings especially for those detained for defending human rights during the July 11, 2021, and other protests;
- The Cuban military regime condemns the broader population to extreme poverty and near-starvation, all the while exploiting laborers, particularly in the tourism and healthcare sectors that cater to foreign clientele;
- The Cuban totalitarian regime also constitutes a security threat to global freedom, given its alliances with dreadful autocracies like Iran, North Korea, China, Belarus, and Russia, not to mention its support of Russia's invasion of Ukraine; and
- Canada imposes sanctions to transatlantic dictators while it entertains bilateral, political, and trade relations with Cuban dictators.
