Broken Heart Rally<\/p>\n

Groups like the Canadian Federation of Independent Business have denounced the benefits of raising BC’s minimum wage to $15, but a fair wage is what is really needed! Join us at noon<\/span> at the CFIB office to leave a day after Valentine’s message. Bring a home-made broken heart valentine and let the CFIB know what it is really like for those living on minimum wage in BC. There will be speakers including low-wage workers and campaign endorsers. After the short rally participants will disperse downtown to distribute flyers and collect petition signatures.<\/p>\n

Thank you to BC Acorn for hosting this event.<\/p>\n
