Back issue. The Denman Firestarter did not exist on 2025-10-09. This edition was compiled on 2026-10-01 from the public record as it stood on 2025-10-09, and contains nothing dated after that day — no outcomes, no hindsight. It is a reconstruction of what was on the record at the time, not a document from the time. This edition.

A Vietnam War resisters event is scheduled for Sunday, October 12, at the Denman Activity Centre, with “Heart of Gold” listed for 1 p.m. and “War Resisters: Standing Against the Vietnam War” for 2:30 p.m.^[1]

The Grapevine’s press release says the event is for people who remember the turmoil of the sixties and those born later who are curious about the protests and social change of that era.^[1]
