A large rally is planned by the protesters for Sunday, January 22, starting at 2 pm. "Where it will be will depend on our legal advice," said Peter Sherrington. A decision on a location is expected tomorrow, and the Voice will inform people as the situation develops. Sherrington and Judd emphasized that anyone was welcome to attend, and musicians are invited to bring their instruments. "We're hoping to have a big crowd of people here," said Judd.

Ten & Two, eh? Vol 2 No 2
Here’s how the mag self describes:
“At TEN & TWO we go beneath the surface if you will and look for experiences that thicken the stew and fill us up. We look for interesting people, their stories and the places they inhabit. We search out the perfect drink, and the best meal. We look closely at the ecology of the surrounding habitat. We watch the wildlife, we tour the nearby village, and we seek out the artist’s impressions. And we fish.”

"CONNECT" - A Look Back
 |
| Early bird arrivals ‘doors open 6 pm’ All photos: Copyright Bow River Shuttles 2012 |
We enjoyed a wonderful turnout for the Canadian Premiere of "CONNECT" on Friday Jan 13.
Here is what one film goer had to say:
"That was a great movie last night- photography, music, content.
I liked the story and the connect/disconnect theme.
The best part was showing how all these people loved nature and respected the environment.
No lecturing, no intellectual data, just showing people enjoying the outdoors.
Memorable and affirming."
- Rolf S.
