Here in Ottawa, it took me some work to track down the events, but there are a few:- film showing at Carleton U at 5 pm, Unicentre - march (starting at 5:30, human rights monument, as I recall, ending at...) - awareness fair at the Bronson Centre (just north of Bronson and Somerset) - "Who are we as women" panel and discussion, 475 MacLaren, 7 pm Me, I decided to skip all that, and invite my strong sisters to my place for a showing of a film (still trying to decide between Norma Rae and Adam's Rib - the Colour Purple was nixed as those with cable had the chance to see it a few weeks ago), and dessert ('cause even with patriarchy, being a woman is sweet!) Probably a sad indication that i don't feel motivated enough for a rally - it doesnt feel like there's all that much to celebrate for the women's movement in Ottawa. Oh, also, there was a child care rally on Parliament Hill at 10 am this morn. No idea how it went - I was in a meeting.
