The Compelling 9/11 Evidence Heads North: AE911Truth Tour of Canada Kicks Off March 24

Written by Nory King

As part of the vital mission of AE911Truth, Richard Gage, AIA, is traveling to our great northern neighbor, Canada, on an eleven-stop speaking tour immediately following his tour of Arizona. Gage will be presenting the explosive 9/11 evidence to concerned citizens across Canada in March and April in conjunction with a campaign to submit a petition demanding an official review of the World Trade Center catastrophe to the Canadian Parliament.

This will be our third trip to Canada, and we have always been met with a good response. During our most recent trip, we joined David Ray Griffin and other esteemed 9/11 researchers at the Toronto Hearings.

AE911Truth Congressional Outreach Team leader Wayne Coste is one of the main organizers of the Canada tour. “There is a lot of enthusiasm surrounding this tour,” Coste said. “There is a groundswell of support for the 9/11 Truth movement that is sweeping across Canada.” Gage will begin the tour on Saturday, March 24, at theDenman Place Cinema in Vancouver, British Columbia. Denman Place opened in 1969 and is a must-see landmark in Vancouver.

The next leg of the trip will take Gage to Victoria, where he will speak at Alix Goolden Hall on March 26. Many world-renowned authors, such as Margaret Atwood and Salman Rushdie, have hosted readings under the elegant vaulted ceilings of this former church building.

“I am really looking forward to speaking in Victoria at this historic venue,” said Gage. “It is well known for its fine acoustics and striking stained-glass windows.”

Gage will then tirelessly continue his tour with three stops in Alberta. On Tuesday, March 27, he will speak at Unity of Calgary at 7:00 pm. Unity of Calgary is a non-denominational spiritual group that is a part of the worldwide Unity movement, and AE911Truth’s appearance there continues our effort to reach out to people of all faiths.

Gage will follow up with a presentation in Lethbridge on the following day, and continue on to Edmonton on March 30.

VICTOR LOTTO

Dawn and I visited Victor Lotto at his home studio on Cotswold, in the Uplands, near the Pollens…

Victor Lotto could give Robert Amos a run for his money if he were to compile his numerous local scenes into a book or two like the Times Colonist resident artist-critic has done.

In any event, I believe Mr. Amos is a fan of Mr. Lotto’s work, as apparently is incumbent Oak Bay Councillor John Herbert, whose campaign sign was out front, along with those of Hazel Braithewaite for Mayor and Kevin Murdoch for Council.

Victor Lotto’s studio is ideally sited toward the eastern morning light, overlooking a mysterious Uplands Garry Oak grove surrounding what he said was the only clay tennis court in Oak Bay.

Victor’s studio is cluttered with numerous examples of his prolific output, primarily acrylics and watercolours of buildings, landscapes and nature studies.

We bought three of Victor Lotto’s reasonably priced note cards of L’Academie Sainte Anne (Saint Ann’s Academy) for $7.00.

“I’ll vote for you now!” quipped the congenial Mr. Lotto.

“I heard nothing, Victor.”

‘Goyo de la Rosa’ recommends voting for Gregory Paul Michael Hartnell for Oak Bay Council!
