#noprorogue

I couldn't make it to the Canadians Against Parliamentary Proroguation protest on Parliament Hill today. Bummed. However, with a six month old, life gets a little testy.

However, it's turned out to be a good thing - because I'm following the protest on Ustream and Twitter. And on twitter, something really great is happening. People are taking pictures of the protests in cities across Canada, and posting pictures of protestors, their signs, their faces. Twitter is uniting this protest - and illustrating the great creativity of Canadians. I'll link as many as I can here during the protest and clean it up later.
