Brigades festives: Montebello, here we come!

On August 19, 2007, a group of around 100 people travelled on a caravan from Montreal to a number of villages in the Outawais region between Montreal and Ottawa. In a series of "festive brigades", they visited Hawkesbury, Grenville, and Fasset to inform the public about the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP), and the upcoming visit of Bush, Harper, and Calderon in Montebello from August 20-21. For more info, visit www.imc-montebello.org.
