A special public rally. "No nuclear now." April 2, 2009, 12 noon. Please join us get the word out --the truth out-- on the dangers of nuclear energy

A Special Public Rally on April 2, 2009, at 12 noon. "No Nuclear Now." No nuclear energy now. We want to keep the message simple and direct.

The location is still a secret, but please read on! We can tell you that the rally's going to be downtown Toronto, in the financial, business, cultural centre. Please join us at a special public rally, that we hope begins a new era of nuclear consciousness and concern by the citizens of Ontario, Canada and the world.

We've gotten local, national and international media coverage to important social causes before. As you know, you often need a creative “twist” to your event, to get the attention of the media and public; our event shall be a first. So the location and concept is still a secret. But please do plan to come out, and join us on this very important cause. Truly, your personal future and that of the people of the world is at stake.

No new nuclear energy now! In a mere 90 days, Ontario may start the clock on the end of the world --no exaggeration. By making one of the world's largest commitment to new nuclear energy stations, Ontario will restart one of the most expensive and dangerous government programs ever created by mankind: expensive, deadly nuclear power stations.

The Ontario Government plans to spend $26 Billion on new nuclear energy in Ontario. That money could do so much for the Ontario economy, to launch green jobs; inject money into medical research, the arts; helping the poor, homeless, unemployed…

Some politicians, nuclear company CEO's and their investment bankers on Wall Street/Bay Street are trying to stop you and the media from knowing the truth about the economic, green environmental and safety dangers of nuclear energy.

Amongst our speakers, Greg Allen, a lifetime energy activist and visionary; the recipient of the 2008 City of Toronto Green Awards. Ms Adriana Mugnatto-Hamu, a social and energy activist; a member of various global climate change coalitions; and a critic of global nuclear energy proliferation.

Our organizers include people who have created special events that have gotten local, national and international media, including an event that may be one of the only Canadian stories to be featured on the coveted Page One of USA TODAY, America's and one of the world's largest and best known newspapers.

We are urging you to join this rally, the broader movement, to get out the truth about the dangers of nuclear energy. No Nuclear Energy Now. Help us get the word out.

In 90 days, the Government of Ontario plans to commit $26 Billion Cdn to one of the largest nuclear programs since the Chernobyl nuclear energy station disaster --that released into the air, radioactive dust clouds that exposed millions of people in Russia, the Ukraine, Europe and even North America....

Our facts and motivation are simple: No Nuclear Now. No nuclear energy now.
Because nuclear energy is NOT green.
Because nuclear energy is NOT cheap energy.
Because nuclear energy is NOT safe.
Nuclear energy may NOT be even needed.

A rally on April 2, 2009, 12 noon. Please tell your family, friends, co-workers, far and wide. If nuclear power is unleashed in Ontario, it shall spread throughout the world. Come out to the rally, if you can. “Tune-in” to our blogspot here, if you can. Contribute your thoughts, campaign ideas, information. Together, we can --together, we must-- send the message to the peoples of Canada and the world: NO NUCLEAR NOW.

    The end of the world is not an exaggeration? Come on now. If you want to be taken seriously, base your arguments on some facts. Scare tactics just make you seem ridiculous.

  2. In addition to:
    Because nuclear energy is NOT green.
    Because nuclear energy is NOT cheap energy.
    Because nuclear energy is NOT safe.
    Nuclear energy may NOT be even needed,

    don't forget NOT RELIABLE!! That makes it even less "needed", because we especially don't need more unreliable power!

  3. Thanks Sean. You're right, in reading the phrase again, the phrase may be a bit hyperbole. But if you see Norm's comment, next to yours, don't you think that sums it up, pretty much?! The world is considering a massive nuclear plant ramp-up! More trillions of dollars spent on energy that as Norm notes, is NOT reliable, needed, safe, etc. And in twenty, forty years, we have hundreds of deadly nuclear plants, their deadly radiative waste, prime terrorist targets, and the lost opportunity of green conservation and sustainable energy... To me that is the beginning of the end of the world! See future postings and articles for the facts, that you rightly ask about! Thanks for commenting
