Originally formed in February 2011, SlutWalk Toronto came together as a response to a Toronto Police Service officer’s victim-blaming and ill-informed remark “women should avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimized”. The single march spread like wildfire. Over the past 3 years, marches have been organized in over 200 hundred cities on every continent except Antarctica, all organized independently by community members who are tired of victim-blaming and rape culture. We do not require participants to want to reclaim slut or any other slurs that have been used against them, nor do we require any particular dress code. We ask only that you come to support an end to victim-blaming and rape culture. Regardless of the victim’s ability, age, attire, gender, housing situation, immigration status, income, intoxication, job, race, or relationship with the abuser, the only person ever responsible for sexual violence is the perpetrator.</span><br><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><a href="http://www.slutwalktoronto.com/">http://www.slutwalktoronto.com/</a></span><br><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/SlutWalkToronto">http://www.facebook.com/SlutWalkToronto</a></span><br></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">---------------------------------------<br>---------------------------------------<br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5" color="#b800d0"><b>Save David Dunlop Forest <br></b></font><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">Sat.

Many legal clinics have long relationships with low-income communities - this historic connection will be lost in exchange for larger more bureaucratic institutions. Clinic transformation should only be adopted after widespread, transparent, and open discussion amongst low income people(s) and community members has occurred. Instead, the transformation project is being rapidly pushed through. Clinic boards are being pressured to vote on mergers in the coming weeks. We should not concede to Legal Aid Ontario’s (LAO) and/or the Government’s demands merely because they hold funding cuts over our heads. We can resist attempts to divide and rule between poverty law clinics, specialty clinics, and private bar lawyers. Given the access to justice issues at stake, we don’t need to accept mergers as inevitable. We should define an alternative agenda. Poverty law clinics exist because of struggle, and have always been maintained through struggle - today as much as ever.<br>For more info: <a href="mailto:stopclinicmergers@gmail.com">stopclinicmergers@gmail.com</a></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">---------------------------------------<br>---------------------------------------</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="5" color="#df5a00"><b>Tour: Getting Around Downtown in the Automobile Age</b></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">Sun.
