We did it!

Dear Everyone,

We did it!

Despite the cold winds, we held our Information Event and Petition Drive outside of Edmonton City Hall, Winston Churchill Square from 1100-1400h and at the Alberta Legislature (North steps) from 1500-1800h on Friday April 25, 2008.

We had the PAAO pamphlet, PAAD Alberta Petition, numerous PA resources (various books, suggested reading list, PAAO website Mission and Selected Articles printouts) as well as my laptop playing selected DVDs on PA topics and to keep spirits up, my personal PAAO iTunes
playlist.

It would be less than honest to say there was alot of interest, but the poor weather certainly had some influence.   In any case some curious individuals came and enquired about PA, and whenever possible we sallied forth to engage others.  Clearly, few are even aware of PA.

I would like to THANK EVERYONE who contributed to our 2008 PAAD Event and remind all that "from small acorns grow mighty oaks".

Over the next year I hope others will harness their own concerns about PA and join with us in order to make April 25, 2009 a better and more successful event.

Kind Regards,

Christopher JONES
