May 3 - Tuesday 11am Rally at Queen's Park... Join me! Buses provided from Brampton Shoppers World Brampton Mayor Susan Fennell - On Tuesday, May 3, I am going back to
Queen’s Park in opposition to Bill 186, and I encourage Brampton residents
concerned over the provincial Liberal governments changes to Peel Region to join
me.
Bill 186 will forever change the way business is done in the Region of Peel and
I want the voices of Brampton residents to be heard. I will be speaking on the
front steps of Queen’s Park and will be watching the debate in the legislature
afterward.
This legislation is being forced through the legislature without any input from
the residents who will be affected by these changes. Residents of Brampton can
join me on Tuesday to ensure that our voices are heard.
On Tuesday May 3, four buses will depart from the Shoppers World parking lot,
499 Main St. S. next to Tim Hortons, at 11 a.m. for Queen’s Park, returning
later that afternoon. Anyone interested in attending is encouraged to call my
office to let me know. (My office will make sure we have enough buses to accomodate
those who register and will contact you should the schedule change.) Queens Park Mayor 905-874-2600, Council 905-874-2607 More info... |
