The one benefit I have when I work from home is the luxury of recording my calls to Lowell Green whom I respect to no end for his service to our community.
Today, after hearing how Le Droit Newspaper in Montreal was reporting only 2000 people on parliament hill and the CBC and CRV reporting that there was only 3000, I called Lowell to
a) tell him that the number was far greater. (He confirmed that the official count was close to 30,000)
b) tell him about the hundreds who had viewed my video already over the internet
and
c) resuggest that CFRA sells prints of the photo with proceeds going to the Legions or to some sort of fund that supports the families of soldiers who have died overseas.
Lowell thought it was a great idea. He also was incredibly generous and let me say my website name online.
As many of you are here specifically to view the videos, I have put a set of links to the right under the Red Friday’s ribbon so you can view the 7 parts. The granularity of the video is not that great as I tried to keep the file size down for those who may not have a good high speed connection.
I do want to take this opportunity to apologize about the shakiness in the videos as well. I had no tripod with me and with the crowd, it wouldn’t have done me any good anyway so what you see is basically the camcorder on my hand being held up in the air for approximately an hour straight. (my arm paid for it the next day)

Is there any way you can get your video’s over to our troops? They need to see the unfiltered version and hear our PM’s whole speech…and the applause. You’ve given us a real feel for what happenned there.

I would be interested in not only a Pic , but the video. I saved SDA’s 7 release version to my favourites . I loved every minute . I especially liked it when the NDP recieved a chorus of BOOOOOOOS from the crowd supporting the Troops , the Vets . Great work , I hope this thing keeps ballooning. I went to work on Friday decked out in Red in a NDP stronghold of Sault Ste Marie. I got a few jeers , and some dirty looks maybe in part because I am no prize winner when it comes to looks , but make up for it in the smarts department. Let me know if there is anything that I can do on a local front that would aid in the development of this effort to grow in support of the mission in Afghanistan.

vf, thanks for the vote of confidence in the quality. I am pretty sure that the troops can get internet access to just view them on my youtube.com channel. This would be the easiest way for them to see the video.
I should try to get a copy of my tape to the wives in Petawawa and see what they can do. Or talk to my MP (who happens to be our Minister of Defence hehe).

Great call – I wish I was always that polished, calm and pointed when I called into talk radio. You’re onto something grand!

Well done! Awesome call to Lowell Green. I echo Josef’s comments. I have called into our local station several times, but I’m sure I never sounded that calm!

Official count at Ottawa Parliament Hill Rally was 30,000 people.
Other than July 1st ceremonies, this is the largest rally ever held on Parliament Hill.
