An Announcement and Tribute on the occasion of the death of Harry Braunschweiler

Via Jeremy Swanson:

We have lost another fighter for Fathers' Rights - Harry Braunschweiler Has Died

Long-time Quebec Fathers' Rights Activist Harry Braunschweiler of St. Adolphe d’Howard, Quebec who, with his comrade William Levy of Dorval, formed the "Council for the Status of Men Canada" Activist Group in Quebec, fought the system in that province for many years, died yesterday afternoon from a stroke which felled him late last week. In his final years Harry and his son Marc were reconciled and Harry became a "Hero Dad" to his son. William Levy fights on in his friend's name. More details on his life and death and tributes to his activism will be forthcoming in releases by SMC, William Levy and others.

Details of the class action suit which Harry and William took legal course against Quebec legalists for collusion between the Government of Quebec's feminist wing, Revenue Quebec, and the failure of the Barreau du Quebec of its mission, causing a breach in public protection can be found here and here.

After years of delay the case was scheduled to be finally heard on May 9th 2009 in Montreal.

RIP Harry.

You were an example to us all.
You were a hero.
A Father's Hero.
Our hero.
You never gave up.
You never faltered once and you never compromised in the struggle.
You will be in our memory always.
