The REO list is very along the lines of what the org4j-announce list has
been about, although this list is less active now and more adhoc.

With that note, a notice and two big events, then more on REO


The newly-formed *Herongate Tenant Coalition* is at www.herongatetenants.ca -
Tenants organizing to fight the largest eviction campaign in Canada

also video of a June 2nd meeting they held, that included UN Housing

*Radical Events Ottawa email list*

Punch Up is super excited to announce the launch of the Radical Events
Ottawa (REO) List, a weekly email announcement list for radical protests,
meetings, events, workshops and other activities in our region!

Yep, we're going old school with a legit listserv to help organizations
keep people informed while avoiding some of the pitfalls of social media.
That darn social media can definitely be handy, but it's also often a real
drag. Plus, not everyone's on there, and how are they going to hear about
your cool event?

If you sign up, you'll receive one email a week, each Monday, containing
details on upcoming events and actions in the Ottawa-Gatineau region. Your
email won't be shared with anyone and won't appear publicly anywhere. And
please note the REO List is not a discussion forum; the only email you'll
receive will be the once-weekly events email from Punch Up. You can
unsubscribe anytime.

If you're part of an organization or group, please start submitting events!
You'll find details on how to do so via the link. The first REO List email
is scheduled to go out Monday, June 18th.

We're really looking forward to helping spread the word about the fantastic
community organizing you all are up to!
