Movie Night The Age of Stupid

KWCCSJ - 63 Courtland Ave. Kitchener

The Age of Stupid is the new movie from Director Franny Armstrong (McLibel) and producer John Battsek (One Day In September).

Pete Postlethwaite stars as a man living alone in the devastated future world of 2055, looking at old footage from 2008 and asking: why didn’t we stop climate change when we had the chance?

This film is being shown as representatives from around the world meet in Copenhagen to discuss post Kyoto action on the climate change and environmental destruction issues. A discussion will follow the movie.

A public mobilization against the Olympic Torch Relay
AW@L and friends from across the region are sending an open invitation for a participatory public event to coincide with the arrival of the 2010 Olympic Torch Relay in Kitchener on Sunday, December 27.

From allies in Guelph:

**There will be a gathering at St George's square in Guelph at 7am**

The Guelph leg of the torch relay is expected to begin about 7:30 a.m. on Paisley Road, near Heath Road.

From there it will head downtown, loop around Macdonell, Wilson and Carden streets and then head along Wyndham Street and up Eramosa Road, reaching the city limits about 8:30 a.m.
