Stu&Jess Productions has made it their mission to present talented, young singers in unique, non-traditional venues. “L’Heure Espagnole” marks the third collaboration of Stuart Martin and Jessica Derventzis, the creative team behind Stu&Jess Productions, their first success having been with Gian Carlo Menotti’s “The Medium” in the fall of 2013, which was presented in a re-envisioned church.

DEFEND OUR FREEDOM Nationwide Day of Action

no c51 IMG_s

As part of the Defend Our Freedom national day of action to stop the Secret Police Bill C51 from being enacted into legislation, Parrsboronians & Canadians are courageously standing up against this act of fearmongering and Stephen Harper’s attempt to limit our freedoms.

Defend our Freedom

This is a reckless, dangerous and poorly thought out piece of legislation which will restrict our rights of free expression and allow for censorship of debate.

no police state

The Defend our Freedom national day of action happened on Saturday, March 14th, noon-2PM at Main & Station Nonesuch Kickshaw (The old post office) 168 rue Main Street,  Parrsboro Nova Scotia and over 70  other key locations across the country.

We gathered to send a message that while the politicians are debating the bill in parliament, there are more and more Canadians that find this bill as presented not acceptable and an attack on our already compromised freedoms of expression and our right to protest any injustice. Although he was invited, the Prime Minister did not attend.
