Hello to all you committed hardworking activists.

	We really need you to come out for this one. we are at a
crossroads here and right now I think it is more important then ever to
sacrifice your friday lunch and show that we will NOT be lab rats for
Monsanto (and other agri-foods giants) to test there products on.

                          See you there,
                     						Cassin


 RED TOMATO ALERT TO ALL ACTIVISTS

     On FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29, starting a 12:00 NOON there shall be a
 NATIONAL DAY OF ACTION on GENETICALLY ENGINEERED FOODS here in HALIFAX.
 This day of action is aimed at public education and awareness on
 genetically engineered food.  Our aim is to get information out to the
 public in fun and friendly interactive ways, and we encourage all of you
 to get involved.
     The day has been planned through C.E.A.G.E(Coalition for Education
 and Action on Genetically Engineered organisms) that consists of
 numerous working groups such as Oxfam, Sierra Youth/Eco Action, NSPIRG,
 the Raging Grannies, Council of Canadians, CUSO, and Youth for
 Environmental Action(YEA).
     THE PLAN:  AT high noon, we are going to meet in the GRANDE PARADE
 SQUARE for some presentations by the Raging Grannies, and possibly
 Elizabeth May.  The Frankenfurter theatre group are also going to put on
 some plays..we are hoping to get the media out here as well...(I should
 also mention that we plan on dressing up in COSTUMES and we have $200
 dollars to do this with)  From the parade square, we are going to parade
 down to the Quinpool IGA where we will interact with the public, handing
 out flyers about GEs and generally makin' some noise.....
     If this sounds cool to you, please contact C.E.A.G.E's contact COLIN
 at 425-6120 or 494-6662(NSPIRG office-can leave a message for Colin
