OTTAWA JUNE 25: Solidarity Across Border March From Montreal to Ottawa Arrives, a photo report by YayaCanada, June 26, 2005. She writes "... a delegation did manage to get a brief, polite audience at the Immigration Minister's office where they were informed that any answers to their demands would be forthcoming by mail."
Rally in support of Hassan Almrei, a security certificate detainee of two years, who went on a hunger strike in the hopes of getting shoes, a sweater and a higher temperature in his cold, basement prison cell. After 39 days, he ended his hunger strike when, finally, adequate heat was provided to his cell. Five guards from the detention centre testified on Almrei's behalf, saying that they always wore winter coats when working in that part of the prison because of the terrible cold.

Click on the photo of Mohamed to see all items related to him. SEPT 21, 2009: A federal court judge today reduced the number of bail conditions on Mohamed, this after Mohamed and Sophie had lived more than 3 years under strict house arrest and intense surveillance. Justice Noel said that there was no longer any need for CSIS to monitor Harkat's phone or mail, or for him to observe a curfew, have his visitors approved in advance or endure video cameras inside and outside his Ottawa house. Harkat must still wear an ankle bracelet carrying a GPS monitor and report in weekly once the new conditions are signed. He can travel unsupervised only in the Ottawa area.
Here is the contact information for Sophie Harkat. Media, please take note that due to Moe's bail restrictions Sophie must be contacted at her home phone that is listed below:
