Libby joins thousands at vigil for Iranians
Federal Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff told about 3,000 people at a candlelight vigil in Vancouver Thursday he’s proud of Canadians who are fighting for democratic rights in Iran. “The Iranian regime did not anticipate you,” he told the last of a series of 10 nightly vigils at the Vancouver Art Gallery aimed at raising awareness of the violence in Iran and calling for a return to a fair and democratic electoral process in that country.
