No Tankers

Posted on by darryl
The Carnival Band ‘lite’ was hired to accompany an oil tanker (symbolically) from Burrard and Pender to Granville and Robson. The procession/street theatre attracted lots of attention and hopefully got the message across to those who were outside enjoying the fall sun. 

British Columbians don’t want to risk shipping 700,000 barrels at a time through local waters.

A small but vital Carnival Band led the 10/10/10 protest march from Scott Road Skytrain to the banks of the Fraser River in Bridgeview.

The police were present but there were no incidents while the band was there.
