Stand Up, Speak Out, on #Bill38

Just a quick post from the #C38 #13heroes rally/protest outside PM Harper’s office in lovely (rainy) SW Calgary – photos of the crowd (about a hundred, from what I’ve read) and signs.

Someone asked me tonight if participating in these kinds of actions is having any impact. Sometimes I ask that myself as I drag myself (and Xander) to (one more) event. But the I remember one of my favourite quotes from The Fifth Sacred Thing: “One act, and about a thousand hours of meetings.” That’s how we’re changing the world. That’s how we’re changing those who don’t see what we see. That’s how we’re changing ourselves. So mote it be!
