There aren't too many of us here, and we're pretty scattered geographically. But there might be pockets of two or three of us, here or there, or people travelling out of their region for the occasion. Nobody wanting to meet up?
I'm not eager to give my own precise location out to the general audience on the internet, but I'd get a kick out of meeting anybody from here who was going to be where I'll be. Could we maybe propose a time and place to meet, for each location where there is likely to be more than one of us? And show up with a bit of paper that says "DU" pinned to our lapel? or wearing one of our beloved poppies? (Any better ideas, anybody?)
Obvious places would be Ottawa, Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Halifax -- and any other biggish centre where there might be 2 or more of us on the day, maybe Calgary?
Working from the list at
http://www.acp-cpa.ca/en/NOBUSHCANADA.htm could we set times and places for anyone interested? You know, "under the clock at noon" (or 11:30, for places starting then, or whatever the scheduled start time is in other places, some of which are 5-5:30ish -- demos never start on time, so meeting at the exact supposed starting time would probably be convenient), that sort of thing?
That would mean a specific place by Confederation Park for Ottawa, one by Canada Place for Vancouver, Victoria Park for Halifax, and so on.
If other people also aren't thrilled about saying aloud where they'll be, I could take proposals by PM and then post a list. (I promise, I am very discreet and would never disclose the names/places! -- unless anybody asked for his/her name/place to be passed on to others who will be in the same place, which I could do if requested.)
