That would be the biggest cut in the history of our province and would, without question, require massive restructuring, cuts and privatization in health care.

For those who haven’t attended a standard legal workshop we’ll briefly cover our [theoretical] legal rights and common charges, but the focus will centre on the experience of being arrested, navigating jail and the court system, preparing for sentencing and going to jail. We’ll also look at how we can individually and collectively prepare for arrest, what the support process can look like, and why it’s so important. The hope is that by sharing information and demystifying the process individuals will be more prepared and empowered to take action themselves - even when it may involve risk. The workshop facilitator is a longtime local political organizer with experience going through the process of action to arrest to jail and in supporting others through their legal cases.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/552237021894991/">https://www.facebook.com/events/552237021894991/</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>_______________________<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>_______________________<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><b><span lang=EN-US style='color:#00B0F0'>Drawdown Materials Summit: Making a difference on global warming<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>Wed.

Point of No Return follows their amazing flight in The Solar Impulse aircraft. A delicate machine, vulnerable to the slightest of changes in weather, the “Solar Impulse” takes them on a risky and unpredictable flight. This film beautifully demonstrates what renewable energy has to offer for the future of air travel but also makes us wonder how much more we can achieve on land. It is a flight of the imagination made real.
