*** Meeting place at 8:45 ***
Meeting at the Osteria de Medici parking lot at the corner of Kensington Road and 10th Street NW at 8:45am. We will have a short briefing. And take some group photos and group videos sharing our concerns re Bill C-61.
*** 9:00 – 11:00 Breakfasts & meet Minister Prentice ***
Get our Stampede breakfasts and have our chance to talk to Minister Prentice about our C-61 concerns. We may each only get a few seconds of Prentice’s time. So be concise. Speak on areas that we are passionate about and knowledgeably. Remember to speak politely, clearly and firmly.
*** Slogans and information sheets ***
A concise and brief information sheet on the various C-61 issues and concerns can be downloaded here.
Note: To save paper, there are three copies of the same information per sheet of paper. Please print a few pages and cut these sheets into three parts.
Please download & print the slogan you are most passionate about and knowledgeable about so you can speak with conviction. The PDF slogan files can be found under their respective directories here. There is a Read-me file if you need extra help.
*** Photos and Videos ***
Please shoot plenty of photos and videos throughout our peaceful protest to post on Facebook, YouTube, and our blogs, etc.
A picture is worth a thousand words, and a video may be a million. A picture, an audio clip, or a short video can sometimes change people’s minds and may be change the world for the better.
Lets get our message out.
