…And, no to war in Afghanistan this Saturday.

Take the Tooker rides again, Saturday October 28th, leaving from Kipling and Kennedy stations at 11:30 a.m. and ending on the steps of the ROM at 1pm. There are lots of pick-up points en route.

Then, ride down to the U.S. Consulate on University Avenue to join the Canada out of Afghanistan rally and march.

The connection? Why it’s oil, of course, silly!

Some people (like Linda McQuaig, for example) believe that our addiction to oil is fueling our foreign policy. So, act locally: ride your bike and email your candidate for City Council to tell them you support a bike lane on Bloor. And, think globally: attend the rally and march. Tens of thousands of people in dozens of towns and cities across the country are expected to demonstrate to bring Canadian troops home.
