New report examines the impact of relocating ID Services out of the Dundas-Sherbourne neighbourhood

| May 13, 2010

Show Notes:

Moving ID worker Gaetan Heroux out of the Street Health offices last December was done because he spoke out in favor of the Street Health CUPE unionization drive, three long-time Toronto activists concluded in a report released Wednesday by the East Downtown Fightback Campaign.

The report, released Wednesday at a rally in Allan Gardens, was put together by Anna Willats, Herman Rosenfeld and Irina Ceric.

Herman Rosenfeld argues that the report was produced to get at the truth behind the relocation of Gaetan Heroux and “not just the stories that people tell.”(0:00 – 8:15)

Anna Willats predicts it won’t take long for Street Health to realize that the relocation was a bad move and “things will have to return to the way that they were.”(8:16 – 11:50)
