The Gatineau Chamber Of Commerce Is Awesome. OMG, did I just say that?

[commodorified]

Please take note that, pursuant to section 16 of Bill 78, the Chamber of Commerce of Gatineau will have a group of “more than 10 persons” on the 29th of May 2012 between 5:00pm and 7:00pm.

...

We anticipate that there will be about 200 people attending. Please be kind enough to let us know the number of plainclothes officers who will infiltrate our event so that we may be able to order the appropriate catering ...

ETA: Gibbs? We're going to need to let them know about the cottage party... you, um, want any help writing the letter?

I just made an extremely satisfied "HA." noise.

The cottage party, being a closed venue need not be notified. However, we will have to make sure that we do notify for various activities that may involve more than 9 people - swimming, walking, climbing, etc. as those will take place in venues that are arguably public. How many notifications we should generate is difficult to determine. One for each separate activity, each time it occurs seems sufficiently annoying, I mean, prudent, but there are inherent difficulties with scheduling using that approach. Perhaps we should also contemplate blanket notifications for the entire time of potential gatherings. Not yet having read the legislation or regs, I am wondering whether tweeting individual members of the relevant police force is necessary, in addition to letters and faxs. Perhaps all of the above, just to be safe.
