Not much to say really. We've written letters, spoke out at meetings, sent emails, signed petitions, told our friends to do the same... now, we all have to pack this public hearing and let THEM know loud and clear that this resort plan is NOT OK.
When: Tuesday, September 6; rally starts at 3:30 pm
Where: Edward Milne School in Sooke (6218 Sooke Rd.)
We will only have this one final chance to speak out, before the political process closes its doors on us. Now is the time to put this supposed democracy to the test. And since local politicians have started fighting dirty (see older posts below for news on this) I feel it's our duty to respond in kind. No more nice and friendly - I am to misbehave, and look forward to others joining me.
Bring signs and banners! Bring drums and noisemakers! Let our voices ring out through Sooke, while we overfill the room and flood out into the streets. This meeting is not over until the last person has spoken, so bring some coffee and a speech (or a song), and let's make this count. Sooke isn't that far - buses make it out there from Victoria, and stop right in front of the school. And if that's not easy enough, the Sierra Club is organizing a bus!
What are you waiting for? Get on the bus! Check out the sierra club's website for more info.
