World Wide Rallies In Support of The Writers!

It's a small world after all - thanks to the Internet (not the theme-park ride). Yesterday was International Picketing Day, and we got emails, links, photos and videos sent to us from around the globe!

Thanks to Jessie Jay for sending these two links:

Jessie writes, "I love your site and I hope you know how much fans around the world support you guys, and not just those in the same hemisphere as you."


From Montreal

Martine Pag�, a screenwriter, sends this report:

The turn out in Canada was pretty good, including two groups braving
the COLD in Toronto and Montreal! The rallies were organized by the WGC
(Writers Guild of Canada) and the SARTEC (the French language writers
guild in Quebec). There were a lot of newspaper and radio reporters
around as well as tv camera crews.

Here's a video of the bilingual (English and French) solidarity march
today in Montreal.

And here are some photos of the rallies in Montreal and Toronto.

Here's a recap of the walk in Montreal.

And here's a recap of the walk in Toronto.

We're behind you! Don't give up!

Thanks again to all who braved inclement weather in different hemispheres supporting our WGA. Appreciate all your sharing!
