If anyone has any doubts left as to the importance of getting to
Calgary, the gauntlet has been dropped further.
Let me reiterate: If we are to have any rights, any rights at all, go
to Alberta for the demo. This kind of mass harrassment must not be
tolerated, and we must answer the call.
Your rights are only as good as your ability to use them.
Use them now.

I just heard on the network CBC Radio One in
Vancouver, the 3 p.m. national radio news. There was a short item on the
G8 and how Albertan police will patrol main highways at the provincial
borders and are planning to turn back anyone with gas masks aboard
or "other" paraphanalia that may lead them to believe that the vehicle
occupants are headed into the province to protest the G8. "Zero
Tolerence" seems to be the order of the day, when it comes to
legitimate protest.
Time to start
concocting some "other" stories for the coppers as to why we are
travelling into the province.
