The Call Out:
When the government turns a blind eye, the 99 per cent shoulders the responsibility.
Toronto’s standup comedy community in conjunction with Occupy Toronto invites you to a fundraising effort that will leave you in stitches and bring hope to those neglected by “The Harper Government.”

Come to laugh and be entertained, and leave knowing you’ve made a difference in the lives of those our tax dollars couldn’t help (there are fake lakes to build you know)
Entertaining you for this great cause are some of Toronto’s funniest, including:
Catherine McCormick
Erik Bamburg
Evan Desmarais
Danny Polishchuck
Natalie Norman
Josh Menezes
Amber Harper-Young
With Danish Anwar hosting.
100 per cent of the proceeds will go towards assisting the Attawapiskat community, through an reputable charity such as the Red Cross, that will distribute the funds with transparency.
It’s time to step in where Harper stepped out.
