The 10:23 Challenge
On February 5th Skeptics are invited to take part in the 10:23 Challenge!
The
10:23 Challenge is a follow-up to the 'overdose' protest staged by the
10:23 Campaign in 2010. International protesters from more than 10
countries, and more than 23 cities will gather for over the weekend of
February 5-6 2011, to make the simple statement: Homeopathy - There's
Nothing In It.
In Canada, CASS (Committee for the Advancement of Scientific S
kepticism)
is co-coordinating groups across the country to stage public
demonstrations designed to provoke discussion about homeopathy.
CFI
Vancouver will be assembling outside the Vancouver Art Gallery (Robson
side) for a homeopathic dilution! We will use the very method homeopaths
use to make their products to show how there's nothing in it!!
If
you feel like overdosing on homeopathy, bring some along! Just be sure
to get the proper dilution, remember - some companies do use an active
ingredient. Research carefully before you take anything.
The following Canadian cities will be participating: Montreal, Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa, Kitchener and Edmonton!
It's our hope we can get media attention for this so be sure to smile for the cameras!
