Work a Day For Prisoner Support!

Hello Everyone!

As I assume you have heard, there are currently dozens people going through the court system following the heavy repression of the G20 in Toronto. Currently, five people are serving prison sentences (Leah Henderson 10 months, Mandy Hiscocks 16 months, Greg Rowley 9 months, Peter Hopperton 5 months, and Nick Cote 6 months), with several others awaiting sentencing, probable jail time, and serving house arrest.

The outcome of the g20 was one of the most unbelievable moments in Canadian judicial history, where political ideologies and public dissent were heavily criminalized in the face of the courts. As many have recognized, this was and continues to be a serious challenge to our civil liberties. We cannot allow the dignity and morale of those individuals caught up in the judicial process be lost, simply because they were fighting for environmental and social justice.

It would be ignorant not to acknowledge that there are thousands of people going through the court and judicial system in Canada right now. It would be amazing to be able to work towards financially supporting every one of these people through their legal proceedings.

Unfortunately, as we attempt to support our community members through this situation, we are finding it hard to simply cover the costs of their incarceration. This is no small feat, as we are attempting to cover as much of their commissary, collect phone calls, visitor expenses, and outstanding legal fees as possible.

As is often the case with most social movements, money is always a stress, especially when our immediate social networks have been sucked dry due to the longevity of these court proceedings.

With this in mind, we are inviting you to help us in our endeavour to support those affected by the repression following the G20.

Work one day for the G20 prisoners.

We understand that everyone has a different strength when it comes to contributing towards greater social and environmental justice. Perhaps for the individuals currently negotiating the judicial process, organizing around the atrocities of the g20 was their strength. Now, it is time that the rest of us take advantage of our privileged place of relative freedom to contribute where we are strong; through financial contribution.

We are asking all of those who are able to work one day in the name of the g20 prisoners, and contribute anywhere from 40-100% of your daily wage to their incarcerated and legal fees. As part of a larger fundraising effort, our goal is to raise $5000 by the end of March.

We are naming March 15th, the International Day Against Police Brutality, as the date for this work-a-day fundraiser. However, this day was chosen for it’s symbolic significance, and donations will be graciously accepted at any time throughout March.

If you live in or around Montreal, we invite participants to come to the anti-authoritarian social space La Belle Epoque located in Pointe-St-Charles for a thank you brunch on Sunday, April 1st, to hand in their donations in person. We will also have postcards available to send to the prisoners, as well as an update about the current legal situation as it stands at the time.

For those of you unable to make it out in person but who still wish to donate funds, you can do so through our paypal account:

If you are interested to know exactly where your money will be going, please visit www.workaday.noblogs.org for more information. You can also send us an email, at work...@gmail.com

If you know someone else who might be interested in participating in this fundraiser, please pass this information onto them! The more, the better!

The initiators of this fundraiser are located in Montreal, but if there are others who wish to promote this fundraiser in their own city you are highly encouraged to do so. Send us an email and we will add your city and information to the website as well as coordinate collecting the funds.
