Standing Up For Canada's Manufacturing Sector

Community Rally:

Three locations have been identified for people to marshal at and march from. Everyone is encouraged to choose the most convenient location to themselves. We ask that you begin to gather at one of these 3 locations no later than 9:00 AM, so we can begin to march by 10:00 AM.

Note: Citizens experiencing physical disabilities may assembly directly at the Ford Test Track Park, where designated parking will be available. (The general public should note that ALL parking around the perimeter of the park will be designated for seniors and those with physical impairments.)

Marshalling Area #1

Assemble at Drouillard Road - between Wyandotte Street and Riverside Drive. (View the location on a Yahoo! Map.)

March Route will be South on Drouillard Road to Seminole Street, then East to the Ford Test Track Park.
(March distance will be approximately 2.4 km.)

Parking will be available in the Gorski Preferred Parking lot off Riverside Drive East, between Walker Road & Drouillard Road. (The same lot that was used on Labour Day, behind the Casino Windsor employee parking lot.)

Marshalling Area #2

Assemble at Stodgell Park (on the Northwest corner of Kildare Street and Seneca Street). (View the location on a Yahoo! Map. Please note that Stodgell Park is identified as Kildare Park on this map.)

March Route will be East on Seneca Street to Walker Road, which we will follow North to Seminole Street, before heading East to the Ford Test Track Park.
(March distance will be approximately 2.3 km.)

Parking will be available in the GM lots on Kildare Street.

Marshalling Area #3

Assemble at Drouillard Road, along Chrysler Center, between Tecumseh Road and Grand Marais. (View the location on a Yahoo! Map.)

March Route will be North on Drouillard Road to Seminole Street, then East to the Ford Test Track Park.
(March distance will be approximately 1.8 to 3 km, depending where you start along Chrysler Centre.)

Parking will be available in the DaimlerChrysler lots on Chrysler Centre.


10:00 AM - March

Begin to March to Ford Test Track Park

The plan is to begin to march simultaneously from all 3 locations, with the goal of merging together at Drouillard and Seminole Street, and continuing as one mass into the North end of the Ford Test Track Park. (View the Ford Test Track Park location on a Yahoo! Map.)

11:00 AM - Rally

Rally at Ford Test Track Park

We hope to have everyone in the park by 11:00 AM. Then there will be a few speeches (speakers to be announced soon) before everyone in attendance is encouraged to spend the day as a community in the park mingling with one another. This is designed to be a "Family Event", and many various forms of entertainment will be available for all ages, without charge, within the park that day.
