Dear Hon. Brian Masse,
In gratitude to Canada for all she has done for the truth about the greatest crime after the Holocaust in Europe, the genocide in Srebrenica and for justice for the victims of this terrible crime.The International expert team of the Institute Research of Genocide Canada with more than 100 of the world’s prominent genocide and human rights activists and freedoms, urges you to help in the realization of our desires to establish and distribute, the Flower of Srebrenica, the symbol of the genocide in Srebrenica, to all the members of Canadian Parliament.
We would like to remind you that Canada is one of the few countries in the world with two resolutions that has politically recognized and judicially established the fact that genocide occurred in Srebrenica. The procedure of the Canadian Parliament has taken place within private bill on establishing July 11th as a Day of Remembrance for Victims of genocide in Srebrenica. The Canadian Museum for Human Rights and Freedoms in Winnipeg has established a permanent exhibition on the genocide in Srebrenica. The Canadian city of Windsor has unveiled the first monument to the victims of genocide in Srebrenica in the Bosnian and Herzegovina diaspora. In some Canadian schools they have began to study the genocide in Srebrenica. Mayors of Hamilton and Windsor declared July 11th a day of Remembrance for the Victims of genocide in Srebrenica.
These indicators clearly demonstrate that Canada is the world's leader in the search for the truth about the genocide in Srebrenica and justice for the victims of this crime. In this name we urge you to make efforts in the realization of our gratitude to Canada. We have already acquired the amount of Flowers of Srebrenica in the number of members of the Canadian Parliament. Our campaign is supported by many Canadians and their organisations.
With respect,

U znak zahvalnosti Kanadi za sve što je uÄinila za istinu o najveÄem
zloÄinu poslije holokausta u Evropi, genocidu u Srebrenici i za pravdu
za žrtve tog strašnog zloÄina, Internacionalni ekspertni tim Instituta
za istraživanje genocida, Kanada koji broji više od 100 istaknutih
svijetskih istraživaÄa genocida i aktivista za ljudska prava i
slobode, vas moli da pomognete u realizaciji naše želje za uruÄivanjem
Cvijeta Srebrenice, simbola genocida u Srebrenici, svim Älanovima
Kanadskog parlamenta.
Želimo vas podsjetiti da je Kanada jedna od rijetkih država u svijetu
koja je sa dvije rezolucije politiÄki priznala sudski utvrÄ‘ene
Äinjenice o genocidu u Srebrenici. U proceduri Kanadskog parlamenta je
i privatni zakon o utvrđivanju 11 jula kao Dana sjećanja na žrtve
genocida u Srebrenici. U kanadskom muzeju za ljudska prava i slobode u
Vinipeku se nalazi stalna postavka o genocidu u Srebrenici. U
kanadskom gradu Windsoru je otkriven prvi spomenik žrtvama genocida u
Srebrenici u bosanskohercegovaÄkoj dijaspori. U nekim kanadskim
školama se izuÄava genocid u Srebrenici. GradonaÄelnici Hamiltona i
Windsora su proglasili 11 juli Danom sjećanja na žrtve genocida u
Srebrenici.
Ovi pokazatelji jasno govore da je Kanada svijetski lider u traganju
za potpunom istinom o genocidu u Srebrenici i pravdi za žrtve tog
zloÄina. U to ime molimo vas da uÄinite napor u realizaciji naše
zahvalnosti Kanadi. Mi smo već nabavili Cvijet Srebrenice u broju
Älanova Kanadskog parlamenta.
Ovu našu akciju podržavaju vaši prijatelji David Sutcliffe i Mustafa Ceric.
S poštovanjem
