Summary:
This is a call for support and solidarity with a tent city being erected by the Anti-Poverty Committee and Housing Action Committee in response to the Vancouver bid for the 2010 Winter Olympics and the concurrent crisis in social housing and the proposed two year welfare limit. It describes the policy of the BC Liberals and its effects on the working poor. It also describes the need to fightback.
