Hi again Bob,

I got the password reset, and tried posting, but I must have done something wrong, as it's not showing up in the calendar - let me know if you can help me out!

Thanks again,
Nadine

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your note - I tried logging in, but my password wasn't working, and I'm not sure how much time it takes for a password reset - please post the following to KW Peace calendar under "Justice", and next time I should be able to log in to post myself.

Many thanks,

Transit Access for All! 

On Wednesday, October 19th (7pm) members of the Alliance Against Poverty will be giving a short presentation at Waterloo Regional Council (150 Frederick St., Kitchener) to follow up on last month's presentation. We'll be arguing again that residents of the Region of Waterloo who live below the poverty line deserve free transit! The proposal that we have been supporting for several years is simple - anyone in the region who is on Ontario Works (OW) or the Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) should have access to free transit. 

Transportation and mobility are key in today's economy, and transportation is a serious struggle for those living below the poverty line. Access to transportation, especially for the poor, is essential for employment, food, and basic support services. And Grand River Transit (GRT) prices are not affordable to an individual on a fixed lower income. It's time for the Region of Waterloo to come up with a better plan!

If you think transit access is an important issue and you would like to support the Alliance Against Poverty's campaign for free transit access for those on OW or ODSP, please come out to support us! 

The fuller their Chambers, the stronger our voice! Please arrive by 6:45pm to join AAP members. 

We hope to see you there!
