A new Canadian War Museum is being constructed in Ottawa at an initial cost of $136 million, covering a space larger than a city block. It is designed "to show how war has shaped Canada, and to present the personal, national and international dimensions of our military history. Its mission will be to Remember, Preserve and Educate". A growing number of Canadians are questioning whether this new Museum will remember, preserve and educate, not only about Canada's military history, but also the major role Canadians have played, and continue to play, in war prevention, disarmament, and the peaceful resolution of violent conflicts. Would you favour the expansion of the mandate of the new Canadian War Museum in this way, or not? We want to hear from you or please contact the Canadian War Museum at 819-776-8607. http://www.civilization.ca/cwm/new/ca_indexe.html
