From the Facebook Event:
Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty put an ex-TD banking executive, Don Drummond, in charge of examining Ontario’s public services and recommending ways to decrease government spending. The Drummond Report is now out and includes 362 recommendations for deep cuts to health care, education, and other social services. The Ontario Liberals are expected to include many of the recommendations in their upcoming Provincial Budget. We must stop them!Join the Occupy Toronto contingent at the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty’s Pre-Budget Rally and March to demand a living wage, housing, and quality public services for all.Let’s show McGuinty and Drummond that they – the 1% – can no longer make decisions for us – the 99%.
Please bring tents for a temporary, symbolic occupation.
