Block the Party: Rally Against Cuts to Public Services in Alberta
Saturday, May 25 (Noon - 2:00 pm)
45th Avenue between Gateway Boulevard and Calgary Trail S, just North of the Radisson Hotel

Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/464134810329188/

On May 25th, the Progressive Conservative (PC) Party will be having a policy convention at the Radisson Hotel for PCAA members to discuss and provide input into PC policy issues.

We think that they are going down the wrong road.

Albertans are standing together for a BLOCK (the) PARTY rally from 12-2pm on Saturday, May 25th to create a block against the policies and recent budget cuts that negatively impact families, the most vulnerable, and all sectors in Alberta.

Rally will be at: 45th Avenue between Gateway Boulevard and Calgary Trail S, just North of the Radisson Hotel

Come together with other Albertans for a fun-filled afternoon to remind our leaders that there is another way!

The party will showcase Mock Booths and demonstrate how the government cannot fix our revenue problems by cutting public services and borrowing billions from the banks. Rather, their policies are only making our problems worse. There are costs to cuts.

We encourage you, your friends and your families to join us and let your voice be heard.
