Evidence shows the Earth's not flat! Evidence shows harm reduction works!


Rally on the Hill to Support InSite, Vancouver's safe injection site

Insite for Community Safety (http://www.communityinsite.ca/)
Monday, November 26, 2007
12:00am - 4:00pm
Parliament Hill, eternal flame fountain
Wellington Street, Ottawa, ON

Rally and information distribution, physical presence on the Hill to show MPs that Canadians support InSite and harm reduction initiatives.

Imagine:

A large sculpture of a flat earth on the main walk of Parliament Hill.

*Let MPs know that evidence shows the Earth's not flat.

**25 peer reviewed journal articles and 2million dollars invested in research show that InSite's harm reduction initiatives work.

Your job: Hand out 2 million dollar bills with Stephen Harper's face on 'em (the amount of research dollars that have been invested in InSite to date) & invite others. That's it.

When: Monday November 26, 2007 8.00 am onwards
**trying to have a mass of people before question period beginning at 2.15 pm**
