^{We had an absolutely rockin' rally on Thursday in Toronto!! The speakers were mobilizing and the spoken word and song performances were moving, inciteful and just plain eloquent in every way. We so appreciate the words and music, the chants and action participation of those who attended. Unfortunately, no media attended. (Big shock!) We feel sorry for the folks that weren't able to join us today, but there's still time to be part of it. HERE is our rally action piece! Get out your cell or pick up a land line and get connected to the action!! Pictures and video coming soon.}
