IRB – Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (Author)
Information on a human rights bulletin with
the above-mentioned name could not be found among the sources
currently available to the DIRB.
The coordinator of the Ecumenical Movement
for Human Rights in Mendoza stated that her organization, which has
been operating in Mendoza since 1973, has no record of a bulletin
with the name given in your information request (26 May 1994). The
coordinator added that her own organization published Palabra
del Pueblo (Word of the People), a short-lived popular
education bulletin that ceased publication in 1990 because of
funding problems (ibid.).
A 1982 news article refers to a newspaper
called La Voz del Pueblo (The Voice of the People),
describing it as a local publication from Tres Arroyos, which is
located some 500 kms south of Buenos Aires (AP 7 May 1982).
This response was prepared after
researching publicly accessible information currently available to
the DIRB within time constraints. This response is not, and does
not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular
claim to refugee status or asylum. Please find attached the list of
sources consulted in researching this information request.

Note on oral sources:
Oral sources are usually contacted when
documentary sources have been exhausted. However, oral sources must
agree to be quoted in a publicly available Response to
Information Request. If they refuse, the Response will read "no
information currently available." Contacting oral sources is also
subject to time constraints; for example, there are periods of the
year when academics are unavailable.
