No Fracking Way! Provincial Day of Action:

Grand Parade Square, Rally and March T.B.D
January 14th 1:00 pm
 
Members of Occupy N.S., and other local environmental organizations, are holding a rally and march in Halifax. We invite people from across the province and Maritimes to join us on this day, to educate and denounce the use of Hydraulic Fracturing. 

We encourage folks in other cities and rural communities that may be directly affected by fracking, to hold local rallies and demonstrations. We will stand in solidarity across the province, to show the government, and corporations we DO NOT consent to fracking our land.
