40th Anniversary Celebrations

During 2003 and 2004 Citizens for Public Justice and the Public Justice Resource Centre celebrated their 40th Anniversary in Halifax, Ottawa, Toronto, London, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Calgary, and Vancouver.

The highlight of the events were the addresses from a diverse and thoughtful group of speakers.

Here is a compilation of those speeches [PDF 1.15 MB].

Although a quick glance through the list below attests to their variety, what they have in common is the experience, wisdom, insight, and passion that each speaker brought in challenging CPJ and PJRC to continue and expand their vision of public justice in Canada.

We hope they inspire you as much as they did the audiences.

In each location where we celebrated, Executive Director Harry Kits repeated: "We thank God for the blessing of all of you - a loyal supporting community. Thank you for celebrating with us tonight. We continue to feel blessed by God who has sustained these organizations in good times and bad, and has given them an opportunity to be a blessing in Canadian society. We rely on your continued prayers, participation, challenges, and financial support as we go forward, past and future together."
