From OttawaLulz
[edit] Time and Place
Pre-Meet: 1:00 PM on July 1st at the Cafe Alternatif at Ottawa U
Place: Possibly at the Scientology office at 150 Rideau St. if we are unable to locate the stress test cart, though we'd be fighting for attention with a giant skateboarding demo.
[edit] Security Notes
This is Canada Day. The police will be out in force, and there will be massive crowds. While this provides a massive opportunity to educate the public, it also increases the risk of being stopped by police. People in masks stand out even with this many people around. Just keep your cool, and everything will be fine.
As usual, wear a mask or some sort of face covering.
Special note for those of you who are travelling by bus or O-Train: DO NOT WEAR YOUR MASK ON OC TRANSPO PROPERTY. One of our own had trouble with this (read: had a chat with transit authority).
[edit] Equipment List
If you can provide any of the following, please leave a note on the this article's discussion page.
- Bottled water/Sport drinks - The more, the better.
- Some kind of snacks - Because Anon requires sustenance.
- Video cameras - We ABSOLUTELY need one of these in case the police shut us down again.
- Still cameras - Because the raid won't document itself, and I don't think the Scilons are going to offer us their pictures.
- Flyers - Bahamut will provide several thousand of these provided an appropriate flyer can be located.
- SIGNS - Our supply of signs was annihilated by rain, so we need some new ones.
- Sunblock - We're going to be out there for quite a while. We'll need this.
- Cake
- Some kind of Civil Provincial Code or such with annotations on certain articles such as the one that permits us to take ANY photo ANYWHERE on public places, so that cops might sleep less stupid that night, seeing as they will have learned the law instead of trying to enforce a non-existent one on us.
