Day of Action Thursday February 17, 2011 - Vancouver

To all locals in Lower Mainland -  Please see attachment if you can send folks especially from Human Rights Committees it would be greatly appreciated.

Please find attached an excellent backgrounder on the Day of Action demands, prepared for the IMF.
If you  read through  this prior to the event at Harbour Green Park, next Thursday February 17 at 10:30 am and the subsequent meeting with the Mexican Consul General at 11:45 am, it  will better inform you about the event and the magnitude of the struggle for labour and human rights in Mexico - with the importance of the Pasta de Conchos mine disaster as central to this struggle.
