Thank you to all the AMAZING folks that keep FREEDOM alive. Mary Lou is away for a few weeks and is so happy others have stepped in to keep our Sundays a Freedom Day. ~ thank you!!!
Now being held at Lakawanna Park during the summer months
Moving to Lakawanna Park for the summer gives our events a more family-friendly name and environment as part of reaching out to the community around us. Lots of families at the beach. Lots of folks are out strolling.
Laureen’s table with important information and a petition to end BCs Bill 36.
Elsie’s table with Druthers newspapers, Vaccine Choice Canada handouts and more, for parents and curious others.
Local speakers always, and Surprise Guest Speakers frequently!
And sometimes… wait for it… Derrick’s mobile freedom billboard!

| WORTH A LOOK Mama Bears Update – Protecting Pregnant and Nursing Mothers https://mamabearsproject.com/protect-pregnancy-campaign/ While there, check out the Mental Health Program The introductory video is two hours long but filled with information and the page has multiple resources available as well. https://mamabearsproject.com/mental-health-program/ The Mama Bears Project was originally all about COVID-19, and the group has taken on a new focus – to become a complete resource for Canadian parents. Their new website is a great start and worth a look. https://mamabearsproject.com/ Their process includes a call-out to other child-focused organizations to reach out and provide links to their materials as well. As well, they are engaging in a number of major campaigns through collaboration with those other groups, in particular, partnering with the Canadian Covid Care Alliance as the research arm to provide science-based evidence. https://www.canadiancovidcarealliance.org/ It’s All About the Children It’s Okay to Wait Education is the first step before meaningful action can be taken ——————————- o0o————————————- Smart Cities NEW!

Of Special Note in this latest Freedom Rising newsletter is the NHPPA’s Say Goodbye! Campaign https://nhppa.org/?p=23427 Next time you drop by your local health food/supplements store, please encourage them to participate in this campaign. The SOS postcard campaign put out by their membership association was steering them in the wrong direction – simply asking for a lowering of fines, rather than the deregulation of the entire industry, which is the ultimate goal of the NHPPA. ——————————- o0o————————————- |
My friends, it has been an incredible journey so far with this grassroots, people-powered project called Druthers. With your help, we have printed & distributed an astounding ~ 8 MILLION Druthers Newspapers ~ all across Canada since this all began back in December 2020! DONATE HERE: donorbox.org/druthers With 8 million of these papers planting seeds of mind opening thoughts into our communities all over Canada, (distributed by 1000’s of passionate readers) you know we are having a tremendous impact in a few different ways. 1. Sharing honest news & information helps more people recognize a bigger agenda. And when enough people see, WE WILL MAKE CHANGES for the better. 2. For those who do already see, Druthers papers provide a powerful, FREE TOOL which they can use directly in their own local communities. 3. For many people receiving the paper, IT GIVES HOPE to know they are not alone in their ways of thinking and seeing the world. 4. It empowers everyone to be wisdom & STRENGTH TO SAY NO when things are being pushed upon them which they do not agree with. 5. A wonderful, VIBRANT COMMUNITY of freedom-minded people from all walks of life has formed around this project, all across Canada, and beyond. Almost 3 years and we’re still cranking them out at just 10 CENTS per paper! It is important that we keep this project going and your support truly is the only way we are able to keep putting out 250,000 Druthers papers each month. DONATE HERE – LAST DAY – PLEASE HELP It costs $25k per month to keep 250,000 papers flowing freely, so please give generously, or whatever you are able. Every dime you contribute means 1 Druthers newspaper gets printed and then placed in someone’s hands or mailbox here in Canada. How many dimes can you pitch in this month? Much love, Shawn Jason >> GO TO FUNDRAISING PAGE Read August Issue Online. Pick up the July edition Covering news and information that mainstream media won’t. The online edition appears before the print edition and the printed version of the August issue will not likely arrive in the Okanagan until mid-August. The link above is for the September edition. As a former newsletter publisher, I am very familiar with production cycles and the need to finance each production before you hit the presses. Our contribution from funds raised at our rallies for the August issue was only $100. We urge you to drop a few dollars in the Druthers box at our rallies each week. The price of a Tim’s or Starbuck’s take-out latte each week would make a huge difference to the number of copies that can be printed. DRUTHERS was able to print an extra 5,000 copies for the Okanagan because of our Penticton4Freedom donations to the June edition ($500), but continuing support is needed to keep the paper coming. Thank you for being an everyday hero by donating, reading, sharing and distributing Druthers copies in your area. Mary Lou Read DRUTHERS |
