In the spring of 1970, 17 women set out from Vancouver in a big yellow convertible, a Volkswagen bus, and a pickup truck. It was called the abortion caravan. Five thousand kilometres later, they led a rally of 500 women on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, "occupied" the Prime Minister's front lawn, chained themselves to their chairs in the visitors' galleries, and shut down Parliament--the first and only time this was accomplished."
