Labour Day Demo 2018

This Labour Day weekend, come join us on the RIGHT side of the fence ! We were there in very strong numbers at the beginning of summer, so let’s make it happen again!

With the passing of park owner John Holer, there have been many questions and concerns regarding the future and fate of the animals and cetaceans still languishing inside Marineland, Canada. This is why our voices are needed NOW more than ever !

? ATTENDEES please read below:
In the past, our group has worked hard to build and maintain a good relationship with the Niagara Regional Police Dept., this has allowed the demonstrations to run safely and efficiently throughout the years. It would be devastating to our demonstrations if this relationship was tarnished out of recklessness. So we ask you to please respect the officers and any of their directions, to keep off the road, and to adhere to the boundaries set in place by Niagara Police and MarineLand.

(I M P O R T A N T  R E M I N D E R S)

* FILM CREW: Keep in mind the documentary crew for CBC’s The Nature of Things will be there again filming the event.

* PARKING: (see map) – if you head down Burning Springs Hill off of Portage Rd, then take a left at the bottom, on Dufferin Isle Rd, you will find a ton of parking down there by the water. The washrooms are also located right beside the parking.

*** LANGUAGE: Profanity, racism, inappropriate language/signs, targeted insults on the patrons/employees, or any other kind of oppressive/violent comments and actions are not welcomed, and will not be tolerated.
Being a kid-friendly event, there are young activists that join us, and this is not acceptable behavior, let alone a good example to be portraying in front of them.
Those who have to be reminded more than once may be asked to leave.

* SIGNS & POSTERS: We highly encourage you to make your own signs, it’s always nice to see the creativity in them! And although we do have a handful of extra signs, they get taken fast and are wearing out a bit.

* DO NOT TOUCH OR LEAN ON THE FENCE.
There will be caution tape there for a reason, do not cross it. Please respect the boundaries where they are set.

* TICKS & BRINGING PETS – we do ask and recommend that you leave your animal companions in the comfort of your home. It is a safety hazard (considering we are on the side of the road with oncoming traffic), and there are ticks everywhere. On that note, consider getting a tick spray for yourself as there is risk of getting them on you too, unfortunately that’s just the reality of where the demo is located.

* Carpooling/Ride-share: There are people who come from all over, so feel free to post on the page asking if anyone is also leaving from the same location as you, or close by.

* Booths will most likely be set up, where you are free to make donations to help out the legal funds of MarineLand whistleblowers, find information, purchase bracelets, pick up extra signs etc.. This is also where the cooler of water will be set up.
