Taking back Canada -- Launch of a New Nationwide Progressive Political Movement

Where:
Vancouver Public Library - Alice MacKay Room

When:
Friday, 26th of March 2004 from 7:30 PM until approximately 10:30 PM

Cost: free admission

A meeting in Vancouver this Friday to review the crisis in the Canadian 
politics and to launch a massive nationwide progressive political 
movement to prevent the neoconservative and corporate takeover of Canada.
 
Canadians are being offered a very poor set of choices in the upcoming federal 
election. A choice between two pro-corporate takeover, pro-war, 
pro-integration with the USA parties (the virtually identical Liberal and 
Conservative parties) and the NDP, which is unelectable, currently 
languishing at 17% in the polls.
        
The good news is that conditions are perfect to create a pro-peace and 
pro-people party, the Progressive Party of Canada, a party that will put the 
interests of the majority ahead of those of the transnational corporate 
elite, and have the representatives of this party elected to a majority in 
the House of Commons, possibly involving a electoral coalition with the 
federal NDP and Green Party.

Come out to the meeting this Friday to find out how we can work together to create a 
new progressive era for Canada. This is doable, but it will take a great deal 
of enthusiastic work over the coming months.


You may ask - what is this Progressive Party all about? It will be whatever we, the 
progressive electorate, make of it. It is simply a political vehicle to give 
expression to the political, social and economic aspirations of the many 
streams within the progressive movement and mainstream sensible Canadians.
