Green Party information session on Bill C-51

MAC A144
"The
UVic Greens invite you to join Saanich-Gulf Islands MP and Leader of the Green
Party, Elizabeth May for a timely discussion about Privacy and Security in
Canada. The event will take place in MAC A144 at 7pm this Wednesday. We've got
a Facebook event set up here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1543101665977584
Harper's new Bill C-51 will seriously erode
civil liberties in Canada. Spun as an anti-terror measure, this bill is one
of the greatest threats to our rights and freedoms as Canadians initiated by
Harper. C-51 defines threats to Canadian security so vaguely that it threatens
citizens taking action through non-violent civil disobedience and who voice
their support for such actions.
The Department of Equity Studies at York University is looking for a sessional instructor. For more information see:
