"I will forever be touched by the courage, strength, and hope that these people showed in circumstances that I suspect would overcome most of us if our places were exchanged. They have been on a long journey searching for a little justice and they deserve our help."
--Lennie Gallant, PEI singer-songwriter, and contributor to "Singing Solidarity," a CD to be launched in Halifax November 29
