hunger strike: Dear Immigration Detainee,I'm writing to update you on what been happening regarding your increasingly urgent struggle for human rights while you've been held in jail, according to NOW Magazine. While too many people still don't know about your plight, lately the media have been paying a fair amount of attention to people like you. Clair East July 19 called for the release of immigration detainees. The news has mostly been about the 60 detainees at the Toronto East Detention Centre and the Central East Correctional Centre in Lindsay who went on hunger strike in July. They want an end to their living nightmare. They did so to draw attention to their abysmal treatment by the Canada Border Services Agency and the fact that they're being held in custody without charge. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
