[Ost-announce] Keep Alberta Nuclear Free Rally!

[Macdonald Stainsby]

Keep Alberta Nuclear Free Rally!

Concerned citizens from Peace River, Whitecourt, and Northern Alberta 
will converging on Edmonton to raise awareness about the dangerous and 
dirty impacts of nuclear energy and to demand Premier Stelmach keep 
Alberta nuclear free!

The Peace River folks will be loading up an old farm truck with fake 
radioactive waste barrels, and will be stoping in Valleyview, Fox Creek 
and Whitecourt, as well as High Prairie, Slave Lake and Athabasca before 
converging for the rally in Edmonton on November 19th at 11am.

Come and show your support for a nuclear free Alberta and a clean and 
safe energy future that all Albertans can live with. The rally will 
include community activists from Peace River and Whitecourt, as well as 
the Sierra Club, and Paul Gunter, the executive director of Beyond Nuclear.

Nuclear energy is not safe, clean or green - it leaves a toxic and 
dangerous legacy for future generations. After 50 years, there still is 
no safe long term solution for managing nuclear waste. Up until now, 
there have been no nuclear plants in Alberta or Western Canada - but now 
reactors are being proposed for Peace River and Whitecourt. Please join 
us on November 19th - KEEP ALBERTA NUCLEAR FREE!

Please pass this on to your friends - bring signs, noise makers and 
yourself!

This rally is sponsored by the Peace River Environmental Society, and is 
supported by the Tipping Point Project (Whitecourt) and the Sierra Club 
Prairie Chapter.
