- Text of motion
- That this National Executive Council recognize the efforts of the Government of El Salvador to affect positively the human rights situation in the country during 1984 and reiterate and communicate our deep concern to the Governments of Canada and El Salvador for the continuing grave and systematic violation of fundamental human rights in El Salvador.
- That we recognize the right to self-determination of the Salvadorean people and request the Canadian Government to press for an end to outside interference in the political and economic life of El Salvador, as well as an end to the provision of arms and other assistance which leads to prolonging the war.
- That we request the Canadian Government, which has publicly stated its commitment to support political rather than military solutions to the conflict in El Salvador, to take initiatives which would facilitate a process leading to a negotiated, comprehensive political solution to the conflict in El Salvador.
