October 2
Pincourt, Quebec. More than 160 children in Tamaley Daycare in Pincourt and the West Island of Montreal received a World March colouring book today. The book presents figures of nonviolence like: Martin Luther King, Gandhi,  the Dalaï Lama, Mario Rodriguez Cobos, (Silo),  Aung San Suu Kyi, and others. The book also contains a Gandhi Salt March puzzle, how-to for paper crane origami, and finger puppets of people like John Lennon, Yoko Ono, and Nelson Mandela. Several thousand colouring books will be distributed throughout Quebec and Canada during October and November to create awareness of nonviolence as a way of solving personal problems and conflicts.
