Justice


It has been a busy week getting ready for the rally on Saturday April 30, 2011.

I got up early yesterday and organized the day by inviting family and friends’ downtown. We all met up at Pam’s at Jackson Square.

Including my friend Sandra and her three kids, my daughter Jackie and granddaughter Jayden, my friend Joe and Dave, and me and Ed there was ten of us from our group that went to City Hall for the Justice for Andreas rally at 1pm.

There was a good turn at the city hall. I would say about 100 people showed up.

I took around 150 pictures and so did Ed.

We marched down Main Street to James St.

We went down James St and congregated at Jackson Square at King and James St.

We blocked traffic and then proceeded to walk down James St to King William St.

Right on King William St we walked towards the Hamilton Police Services Downtown station.

It was a good day of chanting, and well organized and no violence protest.

We finished up at around 3pm and the crowd dispersed and we all went back to the mall for coffee and hanging out.

There was a benefit concert at Gage Park at 7pm.

I started to get a headache so I decided to head home.

My daughter Jackie and her granddaughter went to the Gage Park event and said there was a good crowd of about 60 people there in the evening when she arrived at 7pm.

May 1st is starting out with rain again.

I have a busy month ahead with clients and advocacy regarding Family Court, lawyers and other issues.
