**Demonstration & Press Conference**
*12noon – Wednesday, November 26, 2008
*Corner of Queen & Sherbourne, Toronto
*HOT LUNCH PROVIDED***
The economy is crashing and people are losing their jobs – and their homes.
More and more of our brothers and sisters are being pushed onto the streets,
in need of safe shelter and food. But THE SHELTERS ARE ALREADY FULL! In
fact, the government has recently CUT hundreds of beds from the system!
With winter setting in, this is a matter of life and death, with hungry
people spending nights outside the over-crowded shelters as the temperature
drops. The government MUST ACT NOW to prevent even more deaths!
*We urgently need more, *safe* beds and meals to deal with the crisis right
now - in addition to decent housing.
*EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT TO SAFE AND EASILY ACCESSIBLE SHELTER & FOOD!
