HALIFAX – Following the momentum of last month’s meeting, where 50 people came together to begin the process of building a Common Front for Housing Rights in Nova Scotia, another public meeting will the held this Tuesday night at the Bloomfield Centre. The aim of the meeting will be to continue the work that has begun, work collectively on the guiding principles for the Common Front, and involve a diversity of new individuals and groups.
“We are reaching out to a wide range of groups and individuals because building a truly broad-based movement requires a wide range of perspectives and leadership. If you or a community, social, or faith-based group you are involved with is concerned with housing rights, we want to be working together with you. Please bring this information to the communities and organisations that you are a part of.
We see housing as one of the most pressing issues facing poor and working people in Nova Scotia. We want to work together on the basis that every person has the right to quality, affordable housing.”
