Thanks -- that's great!  Is it possible to list the points that the
delegation made (in the letter and/or at the meeting) and identify the 5
points that the gov't people identified?  I think readers would be much
interested to know....

Thanks in advance,
Chris

Hamilton Quaker Delegation to DFAIT

Hanna Newcombe, Diana Shepard and Dick Preston met with Jim Wright, an
assistant deputy minister in Foreign Affairs, for over our allotted 30
minutes, followed by a forum for more than our allotted hour, with four
members of the Division, chaired by Robert McDougall, Director, Mr
Baines, and Christopher Grout from the IDA section, and Mr. Dawson for
the NUR section of DFAIT and Mr. Litvak from the IDR section of the
Department of National Defense. They had identified five points from our
letter requesting the meeting, and spoke to these in very full and
informative detail. The three of us were able to present the main points
of our concern in both meetings, and each of us left a one-page
statement at both meetings. we came away very impressed with the degree
of their commitment and knowledge, and with their ability ot speak
directly to our concerns.
