Dear Tracey,
Science in Canada is under assault. There is ample evidence that the Harper government has mounted a systematic campaign to reduce the flow of scientific evidence to Canadians. We all suffer when decisions are made with blind adherence to ideology rather than facts.
To make the public aware of this, there is a ‘Death of Evidence’ rally on July 10 to coincide with a large scientific conference taking place in Ottawa. The demonstration will entail a funeral procession from the Ottawa Convention Centre commencing at 12 noon, followed by a rally at Parliament Hill.
What: Death of Evidence Rally
When: July 10th, 12pm noon
Where: Departing from the Conference Centre (55 Colonel By Drive) to Parliament Hill
Notes: All are invited. Please bring a lab coat if you have one or dress in black to show your support. Feel free to bring signs. You can RSVP at the website: http://www.deathofevidence.ca
If you are fed up with the closure of federal scientific programs and muzzling of scientists, if you think that decisions should be based on evidence and facts instead of ideology, then please come out and show your support.
The organizers need your help to make this event a success. With the timing of this demonstration in conjunction with the conference, we have a rare opportunity to really make an impact. Please join us on July 10th to celebrate the untimely death of scientific evidence in Canada.
For more information or to volunteer your assistance, please visit deathofevidence.ca and join the FaceBook event.
Thank you!
