On Monday, September 25th, another rally was held outside the Liberals’ public finance committee meeting in Vancouver. The turnout was awesome and it was great to see so many people there to oppose the cuts and demand for Arts Minister Kevin Krueger’s resignation.

The rally made it into the Georgia Straight Blog and there was a picture of me!

Lindsey Brown and Fiona Bowie were amongst the organizers and Lindsey had this to say:

Please participate in getting the BC liberal Government to reinstate the cuts!

Please read what people like Margaret Atwood have to say and add your voice to the fight!
