Historique / History
Suite à l’initiative du réalisateur britannique, Jeremy Gilley (www.peaceoneday.com), l’Organisation des Nations-Unies adopta, en septembre 2001, une résolution proclamant le 21 septembre « Journée internationale de la paix », voir : www.internationaldayofpeace.org
Depuis sa création en juillet 2004, «Cercle de Paix» , s’efforce à faire connaître cette journée. La démarche politique du groupe citoyen «Cercle de Paix», se résume, pour l’instant à faire adopter officiellement, le 21 septembre « Journée internationale de la paix », par les trois palliés gouvernementaux, soit : la ville de Montréal, le gouvernement du Québec et celui du Canada. Voici les premiers fruits de cette démarche :
Municipal : Proclamation 2005
Provincial : Loi 2008-02-18
«Cercle de Paix» compte aussi initier des activités populaires et culturelles qui se tiendront le 21 septembre de chaque année visant à promouvoir la paix.
La paix a des racines solides au Canada. En 1701, le traité de « la Grande Paix » fut signé entre le chef Kondiaronk et le Français De Calière, assurant une paix durable à ce jour. Plus de 300 ans plus tard, nous devons remercier ces visionnaires, de nous avoir légué une richesse inestimable.
Le 21 septembre de chaque année, «Cercle de Paix» compte réunir des artistes qui souhaitent s’engager au nom de la paix ainsi que des organismes et des citoyens qui veulent célébrer la paix.
Pour nous faire part de votre appui, pour participer à l’événement, ou pour plus d’information, veuillez communiquer avec nous au numéro suivant : (514) 961-5931, ou en nous écrivant à info@cercledepaix.ca
HISTORY
Following the initiative of British director Jeremy Gilley (www.peaceoneday.com), the United Nations adopted, in September 2001, a resolution declaring Septembre 21st, the «International Day of Peace», www.internationaldayofpeace.org
Since it’s creation, in July 2004, «Circle of Peace», has also worked to convince all levels of government: the City of Montreal, and both the Quebec and Canadian governments, to officially adopt September 21, as the «International Day of Peace». Here is the fruit of this effort :
Municipal level : Proclamation 2005
Provincial level : Law 2008-02-18
«Circle of Peace» also plans to initiate popular and cultural events to be held each year on or around Septembre 21st, to promote Peace.
Peace has solid roots in Canada. «The Great Peace Treaty»of 1701, signed by chief Kondiaronk, and Louis De Callières, is a great example of our own history. 305 years later, we can thank these visionaries, and others for leaving us with such a great treasure.
Every year on the 21st of september, «Circle of Peace» hopes to gather artists, as well as organisations and citizens, that wish to participate and celebrate Peace.
To support this cause, to participate in the event, or for more info, please contact Jean Trudel : (514) 961-5931, or by e-mail at info@cercledepaix.ca.

- This year there will be no "Losar" ( ལོ་གསར་ ), "new year" celebrations. (Usually Losar is celebrated for 15 days, with the main celebrations on the first three days. Losar is traditionally preceded by the five day practice of Vajrakilaya. It often falls on the same day as the Chinese New Year.) Our hearts and prayers go out to the Tibetan martyrs and victims of repression.

- Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925), was a highly trained scientist and respected philosopher. Long before many of his contemporaries, Steiner came to the conclusion that western civilization would increasingly bring destruction to itself and the earth if it did not begin to incorporate an objective understanding of the spiritual world and its interrelationship with the physical world. Steiner's spiritual scientific methods and insights have given birth to practical holistic innovations in many fields including education, banking, medicine, psychology, the arts and, not least, agriculture.

- This is the message China's next leader, Xi Jinping, is hearing loud and clear during his US visit this week. On Monday morning, just hours before his arrival, Tibet activists rappelled off the Arlington Memorial Bridge and unfurled a gigantic banner that read "Xi Jinping: Tibet Will Be Free." see video
- ... the Nobel Peace Laureates warn that... "tar sands development is the fastest growing source of greenhouse gas emissions in Canada, and threatens the health of the planet. As the tar sands have contributed to rising emissions, Canada recently stepped away from the Kyoto protocol. Europe must not follow in Canada's footsteps..."
- HH Dalai Lama is truly a man of Peace...: "... Chinese brothers and sisters, I assure you I have no desire to seek Tibet's separation. Nor do I have any wish to drive a wedge between the Tibetan and Chinese peoples. On the contrary my commitment has always been to find a genuine solution to the problem of Tibet that ensures the long-term interests of both Chinese and Tibetans. My primary concern, as I have repeated time and again, is to ensure the survival of the Tibetan people's distinctive culture, language and identity. As a simple monk who strives to live his daily life according to Buddhist precepts, I assure you of the sincerity of my personal motivation..." ~ HH Dalai Lama
