Where: Meet at the corner of University Avenue and Oxford Way (in front of the Li Ka-Shing Center Construction Site, which would lead to a seventy percent expansion of the existing Northwest Animal Facility come it's completion in March 2010).

Contact Jack Gallant and let him know that it is wrong to deprive intelligent, self-aware non-human primates of water, wrong to confine then to restraint chairs, and wrong to perform invasive brain recordings on these animals:
