A delegation from the Canadian Holocaust Remembrance Association met with Justice Minister John Chretien and presented him with a petition containing 30,000 names urging the government to prosecute war criminals residing in Canada and to take action against white supremacy groups. A brief accompanying the petition stated that the government has the legal means to act and should implement the relevant laws. Sabina Citron, a leading member of the Association, said Canada is obligated under international treaties to prosecute war criminals.
