Letter from Progressive Workers Movement to the Canadian Student Movement dated December 17, 1968

Dear Bob,

Unfortunately due to the problem of finances plus the fact none of us are in a position to take time off from work we won’t be able to attend the CSM Conferences, etc. However, we wish you every success and would like to send greetings and statement of support to the conference. In interest of time we are taking the liberty of sending our statement shortly. If it is your intention to read out such statements, fine or possibly print it. Please send us a report of events that take place so we can give it some coverage in “Progressive Worker”.

In line with the conference I assume there will be a number of students in attendance from several universities in the east. Elaine Wismer and Dave Johannson have with them quite a bit of Vietnamese literature. If this could be given to these students to pass around their campuses it would be a good thing. The NLF Committee here has used it either to raise money for the NLF, or have just given it away as propaganda. Given the activities of certain groups we must all do our utmost to increase the support to the Vietnamese.

In Haste,
Comradely
