[KWPeace-groups] From Tamara - I need help with title, World Beyond War, Film Fahrenheit 11/9, Peace Quest etc...

[Mary Groh]

Hi Tamara
I have been trying to think of a catchy title for your speech and what I
come up with is catchy but maybe not informative enough:
       Canada's Foreign Policy--Talks or Tanks?

I am thinking of you as you study hard for your final PH D  exam next
week.  All the best.
