[van-discuss] New satirical film on Paul Martin - Previews Friday

[Murray Dobbin]

New Film.............WAITING FOR MARTIN

Don't miss this very funny satirical look at our corporate Prime Minister,
Paul Martin. The film, WAITING FOR MARTIN, updates the proud tradition
established by Mike Rubbo's WAITING FOR FIDEL and Michael Moore's ROGER
AND ME. The film tells the dramatic and entertaining story of an
activist who won't take no for an answer.

The star of the film is David Bernans a young Montreal activist who has been
trying to meet and debate Paul Martin for three years, running against him
as an NDP candidate in his Montreal riding, attempting to pin him down on
occasions ranging from private meetings to political rallies. In the process
he encounters many obstacles,  including security guards, police on
horseback, and Paul Martin's campaign manager Lucy Castelli.

The film will show in Vancouver on:

Friday, April 9
2:00 p.m.
Van east Cinema
2290 Commercial Drive

Suggested donation to cover costs: $5

Discussion with David Bernans and Murray Dobbin, Vancouver author of "Paul
Martin: CEO for Canada" will follow the one hour showing.
