Monument to the Victims of Communism in Ottawa - Canada
Communist Sign the petition to support the building of a Monument to the Victims of Communism, in Ottawa, Canada

To: Parliament of Canada
While the horrors of Nazism are well known, who knows that the Soviet Union murdered 20 million people? Who knows that China's dictators have slaughtered an estimated 60 million? Who knows that the Communist holocaust has exacted a death toll surpassing that of all of the wars of the 20th century combined ? Just as we must grasp Communism's brutality, we must understand the true cause of this era's most significant event: the fall of the Soviet Union. While we believe that Vaclav Havel was right when he saw the fall of the Communist empire as an event on the same scale as the fall of the Roman Empire, it was not the end of Communism.

Boycott of Greek products in Albania
Boycott of Greek products in Albania!

Albanian nationalists, who accuse Greece of turning the country into a non-conventional colony of Greece, are using the protest to halt the rising power of Greece in the country. In 2006 Greek Imports reached EUR 406mn, while Greek investments are estimated at over EUR 400mn. Greek companies and businesses own substantial shares in the telecommunication, petroleum and financial markets in the country. Strong protests were organized by the "Cham" population, ethnic Albanians that used to live in the territory of current Greece till the end of World War II. Afterwards, they forcedly expelled from their properties. Therefore we call on you to Boycott greek products in Albania

    King leka I - King of Albanians
    He married Susan Barbara Cullen-Ward, daughter of Alan Robert Cullen-Ward and Phyllis Dorothea Murray-Prior, on 7 October 1975 at Biarritz, Bearn, France.

    He gained the title of HM King Leka I of the Albanians (styled as Mreka in Albanian) on 9 April 1961. He lived in 1977 at Finca Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, Pozuelo, Madrid, Spain.

    He has an extensive biography in the Burke's Royal Families of the World.

    Leka Zogu (born April 5, 1939), by monarchists called King Leka I, is the only son of King Zog I and Queen Geraldine. Two days after his birth in Tirana, his father was forced into exile, and soon officially replaced on the throne by Victor Emmanuel III of Italy. Leka was appointed heir apparent of the Albanian throne in 1957. Since the end of World War II, Albania has been a republic, but since 1961 Leka has nevertheless titled himself King of the Albanians (originally proclaimed at the Albanian National Assembly in a Paris exile).

    He also titles himself sovereign Grand Master of the Orders of Scanderbeg, Fidelty and Bravery.
    A referendum in 1997 to return the monarchy was not passed, but some Albanians still see him as their king.
    He was married in 1975 in France to Australian Susan Cullen-Ward, subsequently by monarchists called Queen of the Albanians. She died on 17 July 2004.

    He has one son, Leka Anwar Zog Reza Baudouin Msiziwe.

    Leka Anwar Zog Reza Baudouin Msiziwe (Senton , South Africa, March 26, 1982), also called Leka Prince of Albania by monarchists, is the son of the pretender to Albania's throne, Leka Zogu, and the late Susan Cullen-Ward.

    Susan Barbara Cullen-Ward (January 28, 1941 - July 17, 2004), called Queen Susan by monarchists, was the wife of the pretender to Albania's throne, Leka Zogu. She was born in Waverly, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, and married Leka Zogu, the son of Zog of Albania, in 1975. She had one son with him, also called Leka.

    She died of lung cancer July 17, 2004 in her home in Tirana, Albania.
