REPEAT -- Province-wide rallies planned to fight cost-of-living crisis

TORONTO, June 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On Saturday, June 3, the Ontario Federation of Labour is hosting a province-wide day of action as a part of the Enough Is Enough campaign. In Toronto, workers and community members will march from Nathan Phillips Square to Queen’s Park. The rally in Toronto will be echoed across the province, with over two dozen actions planned.

Ontarians are fed up with wages that aren’t keeping up, sky-high housing costs, and health care and affordability in crisis. They’re saying ‘enough is enough’ of Ford’s destructive agenda and demanding real solutions to the cost-of-living crisis.

Demands include:

  • Real wage increases
  • Keep schools and health care public
  • Affordable groceries, gas, and basic goods
  • Rent control and affordable housing
  • Make the banks and corporations pay

Date: Saturday, June 3, 2023
Time: 12:00 PM
Details: Rally & March – Assemble at Nathan Phillips Square, 100 Queen Street West, march to Queen’s Park, 110 Wellesley St. W

Note: Speakers will be available for interview at the beginning of the rally at Nathan Phillips Square. For speaker interviews, please meet by the rally truck, which will be facing east at the intersection of Queen St. W & Bay St.
