Why are Social Assistance Rates a Workers Issue?
Join us to learn more about the Raise the Rates & Special Diet Campaign Educational
Monday November 8, 2010 from 6 to 9 pm
CUPE 4400: 1482 Bathurst St, Toronto
**On-Site Childcare and Food Provided
At the 2010 Spring CUPE Ontario Convention, we took an important step in continuing to build solidarity with our community allies and fighting poverty by voting to support an emergency resolution to endorse and actively support the campaigns to raise social assistance rates and to stop the McGuinty Government’s cut to the Special Diet program.
Join fellow CUPE members for an educational on the Raise the Rates and Special Diet Campaign to get the word out in our workplaces about why raising social assistance rates is a workers issue, how it links to the liberal government call for wage freezes and what can be done to take this issue on.
