Join Toronto Anarchist Black Cross for a night of inspirational discussion and prisoner support. Mohammad Mahjoub has been held for over 10 years under a security certificate. He is one of five Muslim men, known as the "Secret Trial Five" who have been unjustly detained by Canada without formal charges, unable to defend themselves in court. http://www.peoplescommission.org/en/mahjoub

On December 9, 2010, a Federal Court judge ruled that the security certificate against Mohamed Harkat is "reasonable," and he is again fighting deportation. Supporters fear that he faces torture or worse if he is deported. http://www.justiceforharkat.com

The Secret Trial 5 is a crowd funded documentary that examines the human impact of Security Certificates in Canada: http://vimeo.com/secrettrial5
