Toronto greenspirational happenings

[angela bischoff]

Getting a voting system that provides proportional representation is one
of the most important ways to get green and justice issues onto the
official agenda.
Canada is one of the few remaining western nations that does not have
proportional representation in its electoral processes.
Ontario is having a referendum in October to vote on a new electoral
system. Here's our chance!
Fair Vote Canada is supporting the Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) voting
system that would be based on proportional representation (that is, if 40%
of the electorate votes for a particular party, then that party gets 40%
of the MPPs, unlike now where we have a first-past-the post system where a
small percentage of the vote gets all the political power).

Toronto's first BioDanza
The Dance of Life
With Angelina Pereira from Brazil

Monday August 20th, 7:30 pm (doors open @ 7pm)
2nd floor , 805 dovercourt street (at Bloor)
Dovercourt House

Biodanza comes from Bios meaning ‘life’ and Danza for ‘meaningful movement
’. Biodanza is a system of human integration stimulated by music,
movement, emotion and expression. It is the ‘Dance of Life’ and sessions
or «vivencias» are designed to create a space in which to connect with and
express our potentials of health, well being and happiness.

Everybody can dance and the music and exercises that are used emphasize
the pleasure of movement to transform the experience of our life
physically, emotionally and psychologically from our innate positivity.
Enjoying music and dancing together are natural antidotes to the stresses
of life.

Check out Toronto's 7th Annual Bicycle Film Festival
http://bicyclefilmfestival.com/2007_site/toronto/

The Bicycle Film Festival celebrates the bicycle. We are into all styles
of bikes and biking. If you can name it-Tall Bike Jousting, Track Bikes,
BMX, Alleycats, Critical Mass, Bike Polo, Cycling to Recumbents- we've
probably either ridden or screened it. What better way to celebrate these
lifestyles than through art, film, music and performance? We bring
together all aspects of bicycling together to advocate its ability to
transport us in many ways. Ultimately the Fest is about having a good
time.
