Common Causes day of actino, Jan 28



A new group called Common Causes, describing itself as an assembly of social movements dedicated to defending democracy, the environment and human rights will launch itself across Canada on January the 28th. 
 Groups who are concerned about the direction the Conservative government is taking the country are being asked to “Draw a Line in the Snow” because “Democracy is at Risk “.  Suggestions for action include:  a rally or gathering with banners, songs, video or flash mob.  Groups are asked to take a look at their communities and respond to the issues/needs affected.
January 28th was chosen as the day of action as Parliament reconvenes on the 28th and our MPs will be back in Ottawa. 
The Council of Canadians is providing office backup and their website as a means of communication between groups.  Please check   http:www.canadians.org/events/index.html .
