There was a sense of excitement at the coalition that’s starting to emerge around Bill 5, from activist groups to municipal and provincial politicians. We at Hamilton 350 are planning to convene some planning meetings to set goals and objectives for the rest of the year. We welcome input and participation from everyone in this process, members of allied organizations and individuals alike. Keep your eye on this space and on our Instagram account for more details.
