We are in our 2nd day of training in the Ottawa Office. Yesterday we practised setting up the tent and blowing up the inflatable furnature that we will use during events on the tour. We used the main lobby downstairs because it was raining outside. We raised a few eyebrows as people attempted to get in and out of the elevators. Tomorrow we kick off the tour! We've got 3 days to get to Regina, which is our first stop. Just heard that I'll be doing an interview for Here Magazine - the free paper in my home city (Moncton, NB).

Well its less then a week now and the tour will be underway. Its exciting and nerve racking at the same time.
I totally can't wait for this tour. Getting out there, meeting with so many different people and talking to them about the CYC and the charter. Finally being able to truly get the word out there about the CYC. Its going to be amazing. Going to so many different places to talk about something i find so important.

It is about 23:00 and I have not finished packing yet. Instead of completing my tasks, I went to go see a movie with my friends. side note... Transformers was awesome!

I am generally feeling very positive about my upcoming adventure. Ever since I took part of Insight Theatre, ( a pro-choice theatre troupe that travels the Carleton School Board singing, dancing, and making skits relating to sexual and reproductive health, for grade 7-12), I have envisioned travelling Canada and advocating this topic.

A test of what is to come!

Who we are
Canadian Youth for Choice (CYC) is a network of young Canadians aged 12 to 29 who advocate for sexual and reproductive rights on a national level. CYC envisions a country where all young people can access the same high quality sexual and reproductive health information and services as adults, regardless of gender, location, religion, ethnicity, mental or physical ability, sexual orientation and/or socio-economic status.
