A World First --Media Release of 2009 April 2 Event

Media Release – A World First --Toronto- April 2, 2009- Event today Noon!

The world's first social-cause event organized IN a public pedestrian scramble intersection, highlights dangers of nuclear energy!

"No Nuclear Now," a community group, organizes the world's first "intersecting" of the new internet phenomenon of "social networking;" a social cause; and the age-old, key right to "freedom of speech."

(TORONTO) It's as if the city of London's "Speaker Corner" at Hyde Park was dropped into Toronto Canada's only pedestrian traffic scramble intersection!

Today, for the first time in the world, an entire social-cause event is held IN and around a pedestrian traffic scramble intersection! This special event actually achieves two "firsts" in the history of Toronto, Canada, and the whole world, as "No Nuclear Now," a community group of genuine and concerned citizens, gets "the word out" on the problems of the still unsettled debate over nuclear energy --one of the most important issues of our time that shall impact your personal future, and that the very survival of modern civilization as we know it today! A debate that some politicians, media, and nuclear company executives are trying to shut down and suppress.

There are many pedestrian scrambles in the world. Japan calls its 300 pedestrian traffic intersections, "scramble crossings," or "sukuranburu-kōsaten."

Today's April 2 event is the FIRST TIME in the history of Toronto and the whole world where three important social phenomena meet –literally in an "intersection! 1) social cause meets 2) the new internet phenomenon of "social networking," and 3) the old-age human desire for freedom of speech, as symbolized by "soapbox democracy." Speaking out on important issues from on top of a soapbox!

At this April 2 event, during "pedestrian scrambles," event speakers stand on a "soapbox" in the middle of the street intersections of Yonge Street and Dundas Street, Toronto, Canada; speaking about the dangers of nuclear energy power.

Yonge Street is the longest street in the world, and the intersection at Yonge Street and Dundas Street, is a symbolic centre of Toronto, Canada's largest
city --and also within the zone of any major radiation leak from the nearby Pickering nuclear energy reactor! Yonge Street would become the world's longest graveyard...

The dangers and energy issues of nuclear power is not an exaggeration by fringe fools. Far from it, respected social and energy experts like Greg Allen, the 2008 recipient of the City of Toronto's own Green Leadership Award, warn us that nuclear energy is expensive, unreliable, deadly and UNNECESSARY.

At today's scramble event, social activists like Adriana Magnutto-Hamu, Angela Bischoff, Ontario Clean Air Alliance; Shawn Patrick, Greenpeace; Lynn McDonald, former MP activist, who led early anti-smoking legislation. They note that the very genuine nuclear energy concerns of the peoples of Toronto, Ontario, Canada and the world are being shut down, ignored!

Ontario is about to spend $26 Billion --during a global economic collapse!!-- on one of the world's largest nuclear energy expansion since the world's worst nuclear energy reactor explosion --at Europe's Chernobyl reactor. That explosion exposed millions of people in Europe and even North America to potentially deadly and disease-causing radiation dust clouds!

Today N3 (No Nuclear Now) joins the coalition of genuine, concerned community people and organizations in Ontario and the world, calling for a moratorium on nuclear energy reactors!

Remember, over 20 years after the disaster, the Chernobyl nuclear energy reactor --and an area of 30 kilometres around this deadly reactor-- is still permanently closed to humans... The city of Toronto, the pedestrian scramble at Dundas Street and Yonge Street would become a radioactive wasteland...

"Now Nuclear Now" wants you, and the peoples of Ontario and the world to know what suppressed respected energy experts are saying.

Genuinely concerned citizens and media of Toronto, Ontario and the world, join us, get the facts and the truth that some politicians and media, nuclear company CEO's and their Wall Street/Bay Street bankers do NOT want you to know! Nuclear is deadly and unreliable. Nuclear is not needed.

N3: No Nuclear Now. Because nuclear power is NOT green. Nuclear is NOT cheap. Nuclear is NOT safe!

A world first! Be part of a rally to get global public and media attention to the dangers of nuclear energy

No Nuclear Now.

A special public event on April 2, 2009. Be part of a worldwide first!
Yonge Dundas Square, downtown Toronto. Corner of Yonge Street and Dundas Street.

We begin at 12 noon to 1pm, but try to get there at the beginning, as it's going to be a fun surprise, a world first! Because sadly, some politicians and nuclear company executives want to suppress the problems about nuclear energy, we need to be creative in getting public and media attention to this important cause.

No Nuclear energy now. Because Nuclear is NOT green
Nuclear is NOT economical
Nuclear is not safe.

With better energy conservative and alternative energy, the billions that should be spent on nuclear by the Canadian and Ontario Government may NOT be needed at all!

According to the globally respected Moody's business rating service, the credit rating of public energy utility companies in the USA that construct nuclear plants end up dropping, by upwards of 30%!

So come join in, Toronto's Yonge Dundas Square, as we begin to outreach to the peoples and media of Toronto, Ontario, Canada and the world! No nuclear now!
