The tar sands in northern Alberta are arguably one of the world’s most environmentally-devastating extractive industries and the proposed Enbridge Gateway pipeline project would put one of our planet’s most ecologically-sensitive and intact marine ecosystems at risk for a catastrophic oil spill through increased mega tanker traffic. </span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;"><br></span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;">The International League of Conservation Photographers (iLCP) teamed up with Pacific WILD, the Gitga’at First Nation of British Columbia, LightHawk, TidesCanada, Save our Seas Foundation, Sierra Club BC, and the Dogwood initiative to carry out a Rapid Assessment Visual Expedition (RAVE) in the Great Bear Rainforest of British Columbia. They focused their energy and cameras on this pristine region in response to plans by Enbridge Inc. to build the Gateway pipeline. The 14-day expedition to the Great Bear Rainforest called upon 7 world-renowned photographers and 3 videographers to thoroughly document the region’s landscapes, wildlife, and culture. The RAVE provided media support to the First Nations and environmental groups seeking to stop the proposed Enbridge Gateway pipeline project (and thus expansion of the tar sands) and to expose the plan to lift the oil tanker ship moratorium.</span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px;

Vigil consists of a Native healing ceremony, speakers, and musical and spoken word performances.</span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;"><br></span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;">We vow not to forget these women and all women who live with violence, who have died due to violence, and those who have survived.

The Vietnam War was raging and the nightly news was filled with stories of failed offensives and massacred U.S. troops. As anti-war protests back home gained momentum, it was the hopeful voice of former Beatle Lennon that served to perfectly encapsulate the frustrations felt by many citizens that the U.S. had gotten caught up in an quagmire from which there was seemingly no end in sight.</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal 'Times New Roman'; min-height: 16px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal 'Times New Roman'; "><a href="http://mintff.org/">http://mintff.org/</a></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal 'Times New Roman'; min-height: 16px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal 'Times New Roman'; ">---------------------------------------</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal 'Times New Roman'; ">---------------------------------------</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal 'Times New Roman'; min-height: 16px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 24px/normal Helvetica; "><b><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#007DA9">Impact of Climate Change on the Water Cycle and Health</font></span></font></font></b></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 24px/normal Cochin; color: rgb(18, 141, 117); "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;">with Velma Grover, Ph.D. McMaster University, Editor, </span></font><i><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;">Global Warming and Climate Change: Ten Years After Kyoto and Still Counting </span></font></i></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 24px/normal Cochin; color: rgb(18, 141, 117); "><i><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;"><br></span></font></i></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 18px/normal Helvetica; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;">Thursday December 8, 4-6 pm</span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 18px/normal Helvetica; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;">Rm 179 University College, 15 Kings College Circle, U of Toronto. </span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 18px/normal Helvetica; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;">No charge.

Without psychiatry? This seminar addresses these questions by discussing several existing community based, non-medical alternatives in Canada, the United States, and Europe These alternatives include Soteria House as a successful social experiment, Berlin's Runaway House, safe houses, supportive housing, drop-ins, self-help groups, and nonexistent but urgently needed withdrawal centres, healing houses, and co-ops. Obstacles to their acceptance and growth are critically discussed: psychiatry's medical model, mental health legislation, the myth of "mental illness'", public fear of "mental patients", bigotry in pro-psychiatry media. Possible ways to overcome them are explored. </div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal 'Times New Roman'; min-height: 16px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal 'Times New Roman'; ">Biographical note: Don Weitz is an antipsychiatry activist, psychiatric survivor, and human rights advocate.

His revolutionary ideas are still of relevance to this period in which we live and struggle. We will reflect and discuss the significance of the 50th anniversary of Fanon's death and the relevance of his work within Afrikan communities across the world. We will have an interactive Inter-generational Dialogue re: Fanon's work. The panel and group discussion will attempt to centre Fanon's ideas upon today's concrete, multifaceted social and economic realities. There will also be performances by cultural workers (Story-tellers, Spoken Word Artists, Drummers, etc).</span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px;

The classic With Babies And Banners presents the untold story of the women–the working women, wives, mothers and sisters–who became the backbone of the strike.Organizing support for the workers occupying the plants, the women fought to defend the occupation and mobilized broad support that was instrumental in the strike’s success.

From there, we will march to the Don Jail in order to express our hatred of prisons and our contempt for the Criminal (In)Justice System. Harper's Crime Bill is an attempt to lock more of us away for petty crimes - to fill Canadian jails with drug users and people struggling with mental health issues. </span></font><span style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;"><br><br></span></font>

Increased policing and criminalization is an austerity strategy that will inevitably result in more of our friends and family members being locked away, more government money spent on policing and prisons, and the closures of community programs and schools. </span></font><span style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;"><br><br></span></font>

There are plans for dozens of new prisons equipped with state-of-the-art security systems to further isolate prisoners from the outside world. The consequences to us and to our communities are dire; if the Crime Bill is passed, it will impose mandatory minimum sentences on various non-violent crimes – including simple drug possession (6 months in jail for 6 pot plants) – and make it harder to get time-served or parole. </span></font><span style="font: 12.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;"><br><br></span></font>
