By Rahel Samuel.
Sitting back comfortably, if a bit
impatiently, for the first five laps
of a tactical race, Dibaba took the
lead with exactly two laps to go and
held it firmly en route to her 8:57.53
victory her first over the distance
outdoors this year.
47 - Cup, Marrakech 2014 (Getty
Images)
/ Marrakesh, Morocco After setting
300
a pair of scintillating world indoor
records earlier in the year, much
was expected of Genzebe Dibaba
(Ethiopia) outdoors in 2014. With
19
mixed results over the course
45
of the summer, the 23-year-old
didnt quite live up to those lofty
expectations which will likely make

her confident runaway victory in
the 3000m here a personal highlight
of her outdoor season.

In July 2012, Eskinder Nega was sentenced
to 18 years in prison. In June 2011, Reeyot
Alemu was arrested and convicted to 14
years of imprisonment, reduced to five on
appeal.
Their crimes? Practicing journalism in
Ethiopia.
Nega and Alemu are award-winning
journalists who shared the prestigious
Human Rights Watch Hellman-Hammett
Award in 2012. For Nega, whose first child
was born while he and his wife were in
custody for treason , the arrest came days
after publishing a column that criticized
the Ethiopian governments detainment
of journalists as suspected terrorists. For
Alemu, a former high school English
teacher, the arrest came days after she
critiqued the ruling political party in an
independent newspaper later shut down by
the government.
Reeyot Alemu and Eskinder Nega
From left Reeyot Alemu and Eskinder
Nega
The basis for the charges against these
journalists is Ethiopias 2009 AntiTerrorism Proclamation, which contains
overly vague provisions that have been
used by the government to silence its critics.
Since the Proclamation was adopted, more
than 30 journalists have been convicted on
terrorism-related charges.
Earlier this summer, I had the privilege of
working on behalf of Nega and Alemu as
a fellow with the Media Legal Defence
Initiative (MLDI). The small Londonbased non-profit works directly with
journalists and bloggers who have been
prosecuted for exercising their protected

I would encourage you when you
see someone in uniform, although you may not
know their name, they are already committed to
defending you with duty, with loyalty and with
courage and if need be to sacrifice their life in
defence of you in defence of Canada, defence
of Canadian interest, as forefathers before them
for many years. General Tom Lawson, Chief
of Defence Staff gave this advice to members
of the National Ethnic Press and Media Council
Monday morning.
Council members met with the top
National Defence spokesman at a specially
convened during which he briefed them about
current developments related to national and
international happenings. As Chief of Defence
Staff General Lawson emphasize the greatest
assets are our people, not the thousands of
pieces of equipment in the Canadian Armed
Forces custody. They (people) are the ones
wearing the uniform, they are the one using the
equipment. With people comes hope; they make
the decisions on the ground the key decisions
that make their actions effective, the general
disclosed.
The General stressed the importance
of having the opportunity to speak to ethnic
media representatives provided him an
opportunity to make sure that those who come
and make Canada and Toronto such a rich part
