Letter from Bill Clinton
I would like to send my congratulations as you celebrate the dedication of Ottawa, Canada, as a ‘Sri Chinmoy Peace Capital’. This is a most significant addition to the Peace-Blossom Program.
As Canada and America cherish friendship, it is my hope that some day the whole world may join in peaceful harmony. Please accept my best wishes for success in all that you do in the future.
