Hi all,

The press conference yesterday went well, thanks to everyone who assisted
with it, a special thanks for Cheryl Smith from Voices from the Street and
founder of Peacock Poverty, for sharing her personal story and for her
excellent contribution to the panel.  I will be sending an email to every
MPP with a copy of the 5 Tests, and the action alert for the April 30th MPP
lobby day has been sent far and wide.  Here are some media stories about the
report.  The story by Laurie Monsebraaten is page A8 of today's Star, with a
great colour photo of Cheryl. There may be other press, please let me know
if you've seen anything. Thanks!

 

Yutaka
