Request for support in British Columbia, Canada

L.MacDonald | 13.06.2002 14:46

The province of British Columbia is undergoing massive reductions in services, plans to privatise, and democracy is dismantled daily. We need support from other countries to resist the brutal right wing neo-liberal economic agenda and request letters to the editor from well-informed academics, health workers or professionals,labour and others' to discredit the govt's poorly considered agenda.

The province of British Columbia in Canada has a governement that is quickly implementing the neo-liberal economics policies promulgated by the IMF and WTO. For instance,there are massive reductions to social assistance with time limits, dismantling of the judiciary through closures of legal aid offices,the closure of the Human Rights Commission and reductions to services in health care along with destruction of collective bargaining with unions. Further, there isn't an Offical Opposition to this government since they have a whopping majority in our Legislature. We need letters from academics, lawyers,economists, health care workers and professionals,labour, and others to publicly discredit the policies of this government. please send them to the following websites:  http://www.globe and mail.ca or  http://www.canada.com to the Vancouver Province and the Vancouver Sun. Also, please send letters to  editor@theprogress.com. thank you for your support. peace. for further info. please try these websites:  http://www.gov.bc.ca and  http://www.policyalternatives.
