Paddle for the Peace- Vanier Park July 8th

Repost from here. Paddle for the Peace- Vancouver
On July 8th, our friends up north will be hosting the 12th Annual Paddle for the Peace to celebrate and defend the beautiful Peace River (https://paddleforthepeace.ca/). Why here?

Here in the Lower Mainland, we want to give people who cannot make it to the Paddle an opportunity to show their solidarity with the Treaty 8 First Nations and the farmers who are losing their land to Site C - as well as their opposition to a project that will affect all of us for years to come!

You're invited! Please join us on July 8th at 1 pm at Vanier Park in Vancouver to stand in opposition to this ridiculous dam and to enjoy a fun, family-friendly carnival themed afternoon of entertainment.

Want to paddle? The BC Sea Wolves will lead a symbolic paddle from Granville Island to Vanier Park. If you would like to join the paddle, please be prepared to launch from Granville Island at 12 pm sharp. You can rent kayaks from Ecomarine Paddlesports. Sign up to paddle here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FFBRFYN

Hivemind: We are also issuing a call for acrobats, street performers, puppeteers, and entertainers of all kinds, especially those related to carnivals! If you would like to perform at this event, please email sitecevents@gmail.com.

More details to come - stay tuned, and invite your friends and family to help STOP SITE C!

To help with the organizing, or if your organization would like to endorse or support this event, please email sitecevents@gmail.com.

We acknowledge that this event takes place on unceded and occupied Coast Salish territory, specifically that of the Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), and mi ce:p kʷətxʷiləm (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Spelling Mistakes & Time

You may find spelling and grammar mistakes in my blog. I do try to go back and correct them when I notice them and have time .

The reason is my brain works faster than I can type. As you can see I am SUPER VISUAL which is why I like to share photos, drawing, paintings, videos, film, but typing can be labourious sometimes and I don't care for it because people sometimes misinterpret my tone.

Tone is very hard to convey in type sometimes, fonts themselves can mess with everything. So this is why you will find spelling mistakes.

Also as I say to my friends, love me or leave me. If you like my blog stay and visit, if not move along and I wish you a lovely day.

I just wanted to add a little bit that things change with time. There may posts on here from 7 years ago and I have grown, and learned so much since then, that I may think differently. So when you read my posts also consider the age of it.
Thanks!
