SUMMARY:What's Left\, Toronto? Radical Alternatives for the City Election
DESCRIPTION:As the Doug Ford Conservatives unpack their agenda\, towns and cities across Ontario are getting ready for the October municipal elections. In Toronto\, much of the early public debate leading up to the elections has been narrow and dominated by the Tories’ Bill 5\, which proposes to cut in half the number of wards for Council elections. Debates about specific City issues have been limited\, pitting a few right-populist voices from the Conservative Party against liberal and progressive voices from the Liberal or New Democratic Party. Ford’s shadow looms over every discussion and risks constraining debate about the mildest reforms even further. \nThis public forum seeks to keep alive more expansive political horizons about possible futures for Toronto. Organizers from various social movements will come together to discuss a range of issues – from migrant solidarity and economic justice to jobs\, housing\, transit\, the environment\, and the nature of electoral politics. They will bring ambitious and radical perspectives that engage with but go beyond the policy planks gaining the most attention in the corporate media. \nSpeakers: \n\nAlia Karim\, student organizer\, Fight for $15 and Fairness\nDavid Kidd\, longtime community and labour activist\nStefan Kipfer\, York University\, Free Transit Toronto\nMercedes Lee\, No One Is Illegal – Toronto\nJames Nugent\, Faculty of Environment\, University of Waterloo\nTaraneh Zarin\, Free Transit Toronto\n\nPDF poster | Facebook event \nSponsors: Centre for Social Justice\, Free Transit Toronto\, Socialist Project.
