*** Special Announcement ***

Practicing Democracy’s Legislative Report is Ready!

Official Presentation to Vancouver City Council
May 6th, 2004 at 2:00 pm in the Council Chambers 
of the City Hall

453 West 12th Avenue

 
The innovative solutions to the danger created by years of cuts to social services offered by audience members that attended Practicing Democracy, have been gathered in a Legislative Report by Legal Expert Carrie Gallant.
 
We have forwarded the report to Vancouver City Council and we are please to invite you to its official presentation Thursday, May 6th at 2:00 in the Council Chambers. Council meetings are open to the public. We appeal to your continued participation in this historic event, since it’s the first time in North America that a governing body is taking citizen’s input through such an innovative format.
 
Your attendance at the Legislative Report presentation will show City Council the fundamentally democratic nature of this Legislative Theatre experiment.
 
You are welcome to access the complete report on our website: www.headlinestheatre.com 

See you there!
