EVENT DESCRIPTION:
Artists with Disabilities take on the Liberals Campbell Government
The "Window Pain" project grows from the outraged disabled 
population who are under attack by bc's neo-liberal government through the 
Persons With Disabilities Review.
Ripping It Up artists respond to the question "how has the government 
reassessment process affected you?", with paint, music, writing, 
outrage and lifesaving solidarity.
 
We challenge the provincial governments' barbaric welfare and disability policies.
We demand that the recent attempt to reassess what it means to be eligible for 
disability "benefits" in this province be ripped up/ 
destroyed/ scrapped/ exposed!
