This Sunday, Peter Edelmann discusses legal rights, civil disobedience, dumpster diving, and much more. Peter is a long-time Vancouver activist with a new law office in the Downtown Eastside. He is defending Sarah Waddington, one of the people arrested for filming a police take-down of a couple dumpster divers behind the Food Country grocery store in Victoria.

Sarah and Andrew Ainsley are on trial starting Monday at 9:30 am. Supporters will be outside the courthouse at 850 Burdett St (near the downtown library) with free food and produce. Please join us in asking for an end to harassment by police.
