50,000 in the Streets of Victoria Protest Extremist Government Agenda

neo-Liberal government of B.C. Hears from fifty thousand disgruntled citizens.

In a procession stretching more than a mile, thousands of British Columbians marched on the legislature this afternoon in hopes of reversing the extreme agenda set out by the B.C. Liberal government.

Unions chartered ferries and hired dozens of buses to deliver members from across the province to the capital to protest the government's anti-labour policies, which include the nullification of contracts and cutting of thousands of jobs from the civil service.

The protest was the latest in a string of actions by citizens concerned about cuts to health and welfare, education, environmental protection, and the government's hardline on union negotiations. Many here expect a general strike will be the only way to get the attention of the ruling Liberals, who feel their massive majority legitimizes policies never revealed during their election campaign.

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
