RE:  Hunger Strike announced to protest the illegal deportation of my 
husband, Ernst Zündel

Dear Mr. Haugh:

With this letter I am also faxing to you a letter I wrote and faxed 
this morning to the Canadian Ambassador, Mr. Michael Kergin, about my 
anticipated hunger strike starting May 1.   It is self-explanatory.

No doubt you are aware of the political ramifications involved in the 
brutal deportation/extradition of my husband.  However, you are not 
aware, apparently, that your reply to Mr. Jenkins, dated April 7 and 
faxed April 8, is based on incomplete and incorrect information. 

I request as a most urgent matter a personal meeting with you as soon 
as possible.  If I can arrange for such a meeting, I will fly in my 
immigration attorney, Mr. Bruce Leichty, to clarify any additional 
information you are entitled to know - and my husband and I are 
entitled to have considered if this is still the law-and-order 
country and government I  knew and cherished when I first came to 
this continent as first-generation immigrant - barefoot, functionally 
illiterate and speaking not a word of English - more than forty years 
ago. 

I will be in Washington on Monday in preparation for my hunger 
strike.  I have secured this official request for a personal meeting 
with you from Congressman Ron Paul and Congressman Bill Jenkins.  You 
have their letters in your files. 

If at all possible, please let me know before I leave if such a 
personal meeting with you can be arranged soon.

Sincerely,


Ingrid Rimland Zundel, Ed.D. 

P.S.  On second thought, I am also faxing you a letter my immigration 
attorney wrote to Congressman Ron Paul, summarizing the disaster that 
befell us after the Memphis office either lost or intentionally 
destroyed important documents.
