draft dodgers monument? My fellow draft dodgers were trying to build a memorial in Nelson, BC to honor our courageous legacy to avoid the draft and stand up to what we believed was right
However the VFW and other organization got on this and trash talked this, and people begin boycotting my old town and attempting to bankrupt it and pretty much forced the canadian government to refuse to it to be build.
I just want to say a few things. You say you fight for freedoms, yet we dont even have the freedom to build a monument. (Thanks to the VFW, Etc)
2. This is a slap in the face to us, trying to force us against our will to kill people or goto jail. To be a victim of this vietnam war. We have even right to be angry at what they tried to do to us and be able to build a monument, to thank Canada for taking us against our corrupt government during the time and dealing with misplaced power.
Agree?
