Notes: The next day back at Ronnie Hawkins house it was time to invite the press along.
John and Yoko gave numerous print, radio and TV interviews today and even found time to start signing John`s lithographs.
Not long after cameras from CBC had arrived in the morning, John & Yoko were coaxed outside to ride on skidoo`s (aka snowmobiles) which made for good television.
This footage may have been on that night`s news broadcasts but over a minutes worth was definitely shown on
the CBC special "John & Yoko: A Visit For Peace" that was broadcast on Dec 26, 1969.
The 2002 CBC doco "John & Yoko`s Year of Peace" also aired a 28 second excerpt.
