Where is the meeting point in Vancouver?
Mohammad Safavi
Is there any meeting point in Langley. Thanks
Jeanne Nybida
I had no idea that this event was taking place.
I think it is wonderful that we are speaking out, but so sad that this
is necessary.
I live in Nanaimo.
I hope there are further protests, because the government will not listen
to one. It will be swept away.
If there is another protest I would like to take part, and hopefully one will take
place here in Nanaimo.

Hi Jeanne – yes we are trying to find organizers for other towns. Would you and a friend be willing to take on organizing in Nanaimo. I agree – it is a very important movement to keep going. Please contact me at Carole@seniorstincup.org

I’m wondering why the Vancouver meeting place was not listed. I missed this protest because I couldn’t find out where it was taking place. Please make sure you provide that information for future actions. Thank you.
