I'm a little weary for writing as I just got in, but I have to say
that the Toronto MMM was a huge success. There was a very impressive
turnout today. A fair sized stage had been setup in Nathan Philip
Square. Off to the side were a number of booths where venders and
Compassion Clubs were quite busy. The march began just after 2:00,
heading west on Queen Street, around a block at Spadina to get back
on Queen to return to the square. I'd say there was a half a
kilometer or so of peaceful traffic stopping, legalization chanters
and marching tokers. The round trip took about an hour. Leading this
most colorful event were Professor Alan Young and his pot loving dog
Salem, Alison Myrden and Gary, The Weed King "with his big banner",
Boris St. Maurice, and myself. The city was having a real hoot
watching us. Horns were beeping non-stop. We went right past 'City
TV' studio and gave them a good show.
When we got back to the `Square' we heard some great speakers
starting with Alan Young. As well we all enjoyed some really kick ass
live music all day.
At 4:20, the `Weed King' lights up this monster of a reefer he
created out of 70gms of killer bud, the first half being Blueberry,
the second half California Indica. What a smoker that baby was, and
it sure drew a crowd of eager participants.
I think the police may have been surprised at the number of people.
There were not many cops compared to the amount of people. The great
thing was that it all went down so smoothly and peacefully. We
provided our own (tour guides:) security people with guide ropes to
keep everyone to the one side of the road. We kept to our lane and it
was all too kewl the way it went down. It was a very well organized
happening and I should think next year will be bigger and better.
