Street party for a $14 minimum wage!

August 16, 2013

What better way to launch a day of action for a $14 minimum wage than organize a pop-up street party in the heart of Premier Kathleen Wynne’s riding.  As soon as we arrived we had some very eager helpers from the community!

Samba Kidz got the party started!

Community members signed postcards and signed up to get involved.

While the kids kept the party going!

Thanks to everyone who came out for all your support!

This was just one event in a very successful provincial day of action!  Check out the many creative actions that took place on August 14th and the extensive media coverage here!

Take action!

Hundreds of people sent messages to Kathleen Wynne yesterday.  If you haven’t already, please send a message to Premier Kathleen Wynne that we need a $14 minimum wage! 

The Campaign to Raise the Minimum Wage is mobilizing actions on the 14th of every month! The next provincial day of action will be Saturday September 14 – and this day of action will have a corporate target focus!

Can you organize an action in your community on September 14th?  You don’t need a lot of people to make a big impact. Get in touch with the campaign for support with materials and action ideas at raisetheminimumwage@gmail.com
