The GOOD news is: the weather looks good ( no probable hail, sleet or rain..hooray!) The BAD news is: As many of you might know, there is a possible bus strike that might take place on Monday (of all days!) Therefore if anyone is able to carpool can you please let me know? I would take people but my car will be packed with equipment. Either way, I REALLY hope people can find a way out for the animals..This protest is packed with surprises like a Devil/Santa letting people in on the stores that are selling fur and of course our lovely but tasteful Bunny girls.. We will also have live footage via portable DVD player (marked as 'REALITY TV"..since it literally is) AND I have some activist 'packs' for 'first come first serve'. All signs will also be supplied but if you have extra PETA bunny trim leaflets and want to bring them- feel free. Any donations towards the cost (outfits, leaflet printing costs, sign materials etc) of this media oriented protest will also be graciously appreciated. You guys have always been great but I'll just remind that we will need to stand back from the sidewalk and any entrances so as not to cause any problems for pedestrians and make a difference for animals at the same time.

The City of Ottawa and the Amalgamated Transit Union have reached a tentative contract agreement, averting strike action on Monday. The deal comes after six days of formal talks between the two sides. Mayor Bob Chiarelli says both bargaining teams are recommending a contract to City Council and the ATU. The main stumbling blocks in the negotiations had been wages, benefits and the contracting out of maintenance jobs for the O-Train. The union representing OC Transpo drivers and mechanics had threatened to go on strike on Monday if a deal wasn't reached. The Amalgamated Transit Union still has to have its members vote on the deal. The new contract will have to be approved by city council and that is expected sometime next week. Mayor Chiarelli says the deal is practical and reasonable for both sides. Chiarelli says the deal is within the budget envelop city staff were looking at during budget negotiations. He says there is always amounts in the budget that are projected for these types of deals. The union says drivers and mechanics will continue their work to rule campaign this week but there won't be a strike on Monday ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jawaid Ismail" To: <4animals at ottawaveg.com> Sent: Saturday, December 03, 2005 3:34 PM Subject: Re: [4animals] anti-fur protest carpool If anyone needs a ride, call me at 850 7355. ...jawaid -----Original Message----- From: "ottawa animal advocates" To: <4animals at ottawaveg.com> Date: Sat, 3 Dec 2005 01:06:24 -0500 Subject: [4animals] Final reminder/anti- fur protest A final reminder of the Anti-fur Protest> This Monday Dec 5th at 12 noon- 1pm outside the RIDEAU CENTRE/ lower entrance between Shoppers Drug Mart and Elephant Castle Pub.
