Little Sister's Defense Fund
Since we started this court challenge in 1986, through the various
levels of court, and in preparing thousands of pages of research and
evidence, Little Sister's has spent over half a million dollars.
Much of the money spent was generously donated by individual Canadians,
by institutions and companies, and by concerned readers, writers, and
defenders of intellectual freedom worldwide. Without this moral and
financial support, this trial would never have been heard in the first
place.
The battle is not over though, and Little Sister's must now raise funds
estimated around $150,000. What lies before us is the historic first
"test case" in the courts against Canada Customs since our Supreme Court
of Canada victory. Your donations help us to continue the fight against
censorship in Canada, and to let our government know that its citizens
will not be branded "obscene" in word, picture, or deed.
Donations of any amount will help us to confront and critique the
censors under new laws, in a new century. Little Sister's has already
shown that the laws of this land have been used to oppress the
expression rights of some Canadians. Now is the time for all Canadians
to end this clumsy and paranoid interference at the hands of bureaucrats
supposedly intended to protect our border from the more pressing issues
of our times.
Your donation goes directly to cover costs associated with our
continuing censorship battle against Canada Customs. Donations are
forwarded directly to the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association,
who will provide a tax receipt for donations of $10.00 or more.
