Province-Wide Doug Ford Protests Update - 60 Locations Registered!

Province-Wide Doug Ford Protests Update - 60 Locations Registered!

Hi all!

This post is just in case anyone in northern Ontario hasn't heard about this province-wide protest happening in just over a week. There's still time to add locations!

The current count of locations across the province is 60, which means we're currently five over the last count of April locations! Each location has a poster made for it on the protestdougford website.

All the organizers need for a location is a contact person who will show up on the day, your chosen location address, and the time you'll be there that day.

* Please note that I'm not an organizer!*

There can also be multiple locations in one town. This may make it a lot easier for people who want to join, but it's just a little too far for them.
