June 10th, Ottawa – Welcome the Tories: http://takethecapital.wordpress.com

The Conservative Party National Convention is being held in Ottawa June 9, 2011. Stephen Harper gives the keynote address in the evening on June 10. This address to the gathered Conservative Party members will be his first major address after winning a majority government in the last election.

We invite all those opposed to the Harper’s right-wing agenda to come together on Friday, June 10th, and make clear to the Conservative Party that we will not sit idly by while they attack our communities.

A brief rally with speakers at 4:30 p.m. will kick-off a festive march which will visit some important locations in the downtown core that are key to the Tory agenda before arriving at the Convention Centre.

Speakers in video:
* Rolf Gerstenberger, President of United Steel Workers (USW) – Local 1005 Hamilton
* Denis Lemelin, President of Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW-STTP)
* Brigette Marcelle aka Depape, former parliamentary page
* Rick Mercer
